Does zero bugs mean "zero bugs that were planned to be fixed in this release" or just plain "zero bugs"? We do something like this too, but there's a suspicious amount of pushing the fixby of bugs to future releases as release date of the current version gets closer and developers try to get to the zero bug point.

The "bounce" part is easy to explain. The devs are trying to get to zero bugs. The testers are trying to find bugs. Once convergence gets going, the daily "open bug" count starts to decrease, as devs fix'em faster than testers find'em. At some point, the number of bugs drops to zero for a (usually) brief shining moment; shortly thereafter, the open bug count bounces back up when the testers find new issues or reopen improperly closed bugs.

Hence "zero bug bounce" - the first time the open bug count hits zero and bounces back up.

No one ever hits and sticks at zero without a lot of bouncing; if they do, the test team is asleep.

Busy, busy, busy
