  • Using Already Existing Data to Answer Questions Asked During Software Change
    Using Already Existing Data to Answer Questions Asked During Software Change Daniel Jigin Oscar Gunnesson [email protected] [email protected] June 14, 2018 Master’s thesis work carried out at Praqma, Malmö. Supervisors: Lars Bendix, [email protected] Christian Pendleton, [email protected] Examiner: Boris Magnusson, [email protected] Abstract The software development business is always adapting new technologies while trying to keep up with the market and the importance of having the best-suited tools, people and processes is clear. There is a need to understand what needs there might be, so that the configuration managers can supply developers with the correct support to increase the development efficiency. Studies of how de- velopers spend their time have shown that they spend as much time searching for whom to contact in the organization to get answers to their questions, as they do getting the job done. In traditional software development, configuration managers used to bring a status report about the software to the managers. We have suggested a more modern approach, fit for an agile methodology, where the status of the software is available for any worker at any time. When asking developers how they find answers they say that it is based on gut feeling coming from previous experiences. Providing data will lead to discussions about decisions being data based rather than gut feeling based . We have investigated CodeScene, a tool that utilizes the version control system GIT to analyze which components that have been committed together and analyzing how it can be utilized when performing an impact analysis and how it can provide the technical debt for a software project.

    Universität Leipzig Wirtschaftswissenschaftliche Fakultät Institut für Wirtschaftsinformatik Betreuender Hochschullehrer: Prof. Dr. Ulrich Eisenecker Betreuender Assistent: Dr. Richard Müller Thema Konzeption und prototypische Implementierung eines web-basierten Dashboards zur Softwarevisualisierung Masterarbeit zur Erlangung des akademischen Grades Master of Science – Wirtschaftsinformatik vorgelegt von: Mewes, Tino Leipzig, den 11.10.2018 Abstract Der Schwerpunkt dieser Arbeit liegt auf der Konzeption sowie prototypischen Implemen- tierung eines web-basierten Dashboards zur Softwarevisualisierung. Ziel der Arbeit ist es, ein Dashboard zu entwickeln, welches Informationen eines Softwareprojekts dynamisch aus einer Graphdatenbank visualisiert und Projekteitern aufgabenbezogen zur Entscheidungs- unterstützung darstellt. Derzeit existiert keine Softwarelösung, die diesen Anforderungen vollumfänglich gerecht wird. Es existieren jedoch bereits Bibliotheken und Softwaresyste- me, welche Teilaspekte zu einer möglichen Gesamtlösung beitragen können. Diese können bei der prototypischen Implementierung von Nutzen sein und müssen daher beachtet wer- den. Um die Ziele der Arbeit zu erreichen, werden verschiedene Forschungsmethoden ange- wandt. Es wird eine Literaturrecherche durchgeführt, mit dem Ziel, typische Aufgaben von Projektleitern im Bereich Software Engineering zu identifizieren. Um die vom Dashboard zu unterstützenden Aufgaben ableiten zu können, werden außerdem verschiedene existierende Dashboard-Werkzeuge analysiert. Mithilfe der gewonnenen

  • Technical Debt Prioritization: State of the Art. a Systematic Literature Review
    Technical Debt Prioritization: State of the Art. A Systematic Literature Review Valentina Lenarduzzia, Terese Beskerb, Davide Taibic, Antonio Martinid, Francesca Arcelli Fontanae aLUT University, Lathi (Finland) bChalmers University of Technology, G¨oteborg (Sweden) cTampere University, Tampere (Finland) dUniversity of Oslo, Oslo (Norway) eUniversity of Milano-Bicocca, Milan (Italy) Abstract Background. Software companies need to manage and refactor Technical Debt issues. Therefore, it is necessary to understand if and when refac- toring of Technical Debt should be prioritized with respect to developing features or fixing bugs. Objective. The goal of this study is to investigate the existing body of knowledge in software engineering to understand what Technical Debt pri- oritization approaches have been proposed in research and industry. Method. We conducted a Systematic Literature Review of 557 unique pa- pers published until 2019, following a consolidated methodology applied in software engineering. We included 44 primary studies. Results. Different approaches have been proposed for Technical Debt pri- oritization, all having different goals and proposing optimization regarding different criteria. The proposed measures capture only a small part of the plethora of factors used to prioritize Technical Debt qualitatively in prac- tice. We present an impact map of such factors. However, there is a lack of empirical and validated set of tools. arXiv:1904.12538v2 [cs.SE] 30 Jan 2020 Conclusion. We observed that Technical Debt prioritization research is pre- liminary and there is no consensus on what the important factors are and how to measure them.

  • Examination of Tools for Managing Different Dimensions of Technical Debt Dwarak Govind Parthiban1, University of Ottawa
    1 Examination of tools for managing different dimensions of Technical Debt Dwarak Govind Parthiban1, University of Ottawa Abstract With lots of freemium and premium, open and closed source software tools that are available in the market for dealing with different activities of Technical Debt management across different dimensions, identifying the right set of tools for a specific activity and dimension can be time consuming. The new age cloud-first tools can be easier to get onboard, whereas the traditional tools involve a considerable amount of time before letting the users know what it has to offer. Also, since many tools only deal with few dimensions of Technical Debt like Code and Test debts, identifying and choosing the right tool for other dimensions like Design, Architecture, Documentation, and Environment debts can be tiring. We have tried to reduce that tiring process by presenting our findings that could help others who are getting into the field of “Technical Debt in Software Development” and subsequently further into “Technical Debt Management”. I. INTRODUCTION ECHNICAL DEBT (TD) is a term that was coined by Ward Cunningham [1] in the year of 1992. It is a concept in T software development that reflects the implied cost of additional rework caused by choosing an easy solution now instead of using a better approach that would take longer. There are several dimensions of technical debt like code debt, test debt, documentation debt, environment Debt, design Debt, and architecture Debt. As with financial debt, technical debt must be paid back, and is comprised of two parts: principal and interest.
