Technical debt had originally been conceived as an expediency measure – “a little debt speeds development so long as it is paid back promptly with a rewrite.” However, like financial debt, unrestrained borrowing can lead to a broad spectrum of difficulties, from collapsed roadmaps to inability to respond to customer problems in a timely manner, and anything in between. Recent advances in source code analysis enable us to quantify technical debt and express it in $$ terms. Technical debt analytics can help your team improve its design, coding, testing and project management skills.
