Developers and software engineers may \"know\" principles and patterns, but are not aware of the \"smells\" that exist in their design because of wrong or mis-application of principles or patterns. These smells tend to contribute heavily to technical debt – further time owed to fix projects thought to be complete – and need to be addressed via proper refactoring.\u003ci\u003eRefactoring for Software Design Smells\u003c\/i\u003e presents 25 structural design smells, their role in identifying design issues, and potential refactoring solutions. Organized across common areas of software design, each smell is presented with diagrams and examples illustrating the poor design practices and the problems that result, creating a catalog of nuggets of readily usable information that developers or engineers can apply in their projects. The authors distill their research and experience as consultants and trainers, providing insights that have been used to improve refactoring and reduce the time and costs of managing software projects. Along the way they recount anecdotes from actual projects on which the relevant smell helped address a design issue.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003e\u003cp\u003ePreface\u003c\/p\u003e \u003col\u003e \u003cli\u003eTechnical Debt\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eDesign Smells\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eAbstraction\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eEncapsulation\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eModularization\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eHierarchy\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eSmell Sociology\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eRepaying Technical Debt in Practice\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e \u003cp\u003eAppendix A: List of object-oriented design principles\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAppendix B: List of software tools for replaying technical debt\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAppendix C: Notations for figures that have been used in the book\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAppendix D: Further suggested reading\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eSubject Areas: Software Engineering [\u003ca title=\"See our other books on Software Engineering\" href=\"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/search?q=%22Software%20Engineering%20%5BUMZ%5D%22\"\u003eUMZ\u003c\/a\u003e], Programming \u0026amp; scripting languages: general [\u003ca title=\"See our other books on Programming \u0026amp; scripting languages: general\" href=\"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/search?q=%22Programming%20\u0026amp;%20scripting%20languages:%20general%20%5BUMX%5D%22\"\u003eUMX\u003c\/a\u003e]\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003c\/font\u003e","brand":"Morgan Kaufmann","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46648373575960,"sku":"9780128013977","price":40.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0730\/2037\/5320\/products\/9780128013977.jpg?v=1694090903","url":"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/products\/refactoring-for-software-design-smells-managing-technical-debt-paperback-9780128013977","provider":"Freshly Printed Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
