Master Best Practices for Managing Technical Debt to Promote Software Quality and Productivity
As software systems mature,earlier design or code decisions made in the context of budget or schedule constraints increasingly impede evolution and innovation. This phenomenon is called technical debt,and practical solutions exist. In Managing Technical Debt,three leading experts introduce integrated,empirically developed principles and practices that any software professional can use to gain control of technical debt in any software system.
Using real-life examples,the authors explain the forms of technical debt that afflict software-intensive systems,their root causes,and their impacts. They introduce proven approaches for identifying and assessing specific sources of technical debt,limiting new debt,and “paying off” debt over time. They describe how to establish managing technical debt as a core software engineering practice in your organization.
Discover how technical debt damages manageability,quality,productivity,and morale–and what you can do about it
Clarify root causes of debt,including the linked roles of business goals,source code,architecture,testing,and infrastructure
Identify technical debt items,and analyze their costs so you can prioritize action
Choose the right solution for each technical debt item: eliminate,reduce,or mitigate
Integrate software engineering practices that minimize new debt
Managing Technical Debt will be a valuable resource for every software professional who wants to accelerate innovation in existing systems,or build new systems that will be easier to maintain and evolve.Managing
