Test matrix: Tester will write test matrix in test specification document which keep track of testing flow, testing type and test cases activities etc.

Test Metrix: This will define the scale up to What level of testing can be achieved by doing particular testing on application in the scale of 100% testing meter? By Mukesh Chauhan Bangalore

Metrics means measurement. It play in important role in testing it helps in monitoring the Health of the project/Apllication. The metrics ie measurement is their form starting of the project ie how many test cases are their and how many are executed and how many are fixed and how many bugs are left etc
Example Fixed test cases Total no Of test cases are executed
Total no. of test cases
This Example may not be true but it is like this
Thank you

A matrix is something that gives shape or form to something else.

Metrics are parameters used for measurement to track performance productuvity trends etc.

Test Matrix:
Test Matrix is simillar to the Test Traceability Matrix. Which maps the Test Cases with Requirement. to check all the functional flows are exactly covered with the Requirment.

Test Metrics:
Test Metrics is used as a basis for estimating defects to be addressed in the next phase. Test Metrics is used to measure the Test Activities that happen in testing phase
