-00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:03,800

-Let's also talk about the cost of refactoring. Refactoring might be

-

-2

-00:00:03,800 --> 00:00:06,750

-free or almost free if you're using a tool to do refactoring

-

-3

-00:00:06,750 --> 00:00:08,570

-as we did in our demo. But that's not always the

-

-4

-00:00:08,570 --> 00:00:12,530

-case. In many cases, refactoring involves quite a bit of manual work

-

-5

-00:00:12,530 --> 00:00:16,309

-if you're doing some manual refactoring. And how much that costs

-

-6

-00:00:16,309 --> 00:00:19,460

-depends on how well the operations on the source code are supported.

-

-7

-00:00:19,460 --> 00:00:22,379

-You might have partial support from an ID. You might have complete

-

-8

-00:00:22,379 --> 00:00:25,017

-support, in which case it's greater. Or you might have no support,

-

-9

-00:00:25,017 --> 00:00:26,879

-in which case you have to be very careful about

-

-10

-00:00:26,879 --> 00:00:28,888

-how you change your code and how you check that you

-

-11

-00:00:28,888 --> 00:00:32,030

-didn't change the behavior of the code. There's also an additional

-

-12

-00:00:32,030 --> 00:00:34,460

-cost associated with refactoring. Remember

-

-13

-00:00:34,460 --> 00:00:36,990

-that refactoring relies heavily on testing

-

-14

-00:00:36,990 --> 00:00:39,808

-after each small step of refactoring. So you might have

-

-15

-00:00:39,808 --> 00:00:43,451

-to develop test cases, specifically to check your refactoring. And even

-

-16

-00:00:43,451 --> 00:00:47,163

-if you have an existing test because, for example, you're working

-

-17

-00:00:47,163 --> 00:00:50,235

-some agile context and therefore you develop a lot of UNIX

-

-18

-00:00:50,235 --> 00:00:53,550

-test cases before writing your code. And therefore you have a good

-

-19

-00:00:53,550 --> 00:00:56,635

-regression test with it you can use every time you modify your code.

-

-20

-00:00:56,635 --> 00:00:59,550

-Nevertheless, when you refactor and you change your code, you might need

-

-21

-00:00:59,550 --> 00:01:03,255

-to update your test so it's not only the development of the test

-

-22

-00:01:03,255 --> 00:01:05,379

-cases but also it's maintaining the test cases. And if you have

-

-23

-00:01:05,379 --> 00:01:07,970

-a lot of test cases, you have to maintain more test cases. So

-

-24

-00:01:07,970 --> 00:01:12,460

-that's a cost that is not directly visible but can affect quite

-

-25

-00:01:12,460 --> 00:01:15,800

-a bit the overall cost of refactoring and the overall cost of system

-

-26

-00:01:15,800 --> 00:01:18,342

-development therefore. And finally, you should not

-

-27

-00:01:18,342 --> 00:01:21,191

-under estimate the cost of documentation maintenance.

-

-28

-00:01:21,191 --> 00:01:24,241

-Applying refactoring may involve changes in interfaces,

-

-29

-00:01:24,241 --> 00:01:26,528

-names, for example, names of classes. And

-

-30

-00:01:26,528 --> 00:01:29,384

-when you make this kind of changes, you might need to update the documentation,

-

-31

-00:01:29,384 --> 00:01:30,890

-and that's also cost. It's something that

-

-32

-00:01:30,890 --> 00:01:32,900

-takes effort and therefore should be considered.
