"Improving Existing Java Code", with Llewellyn Falco
A hands-on workshop in Refactoring and Emergent Design in Agile Software
When: Friday, 8 April 2013
Location: The Centres at Burlington, 67 S. Bedford Street, Burlington, Massachusetts
Instructor: Llewellyn Falco
Many companies have vast amounts of pre-existing, valuable code in production. Unfortunately, this code might be brittle, confusing, or otherwise hard to maintain. In many companies, this situation continues to degrade until a team tries to do a rewrite to replace the outdated system. Worst of all, most of these expensive attempts end in failure.
There is another way. This course is about how to work with your existing code, how to get it under control, and how to clean and improve it steadily while fixing bugs and adding needed features. With these disciplines and techniques, your codebase will, over time, come to look as if it had been completely rewritten. |
