Run charts tell you about trends in your project by showing you what your data looks like as a line chart. If the line in the chart were the number of defects found in your product through each quality activity, that would tell you that things were getting worse as your project progressed. In a run chart, you are looking for trends in the data over time.

Run charts help you answer questions about trends in your defect rate.: Does it seem to be going up or down as the project progresses? Is there a steady climb or a spike when a particular activity occurs?
