Re: Refactoring

in reply to Refactoring

That seems to be a great Idea to me.

I like this concept, for it seems practical,
I've seen so many way of programming with a proven/therorical/formal design that were just unusable...

I REALLY like this method (paradigm?) beccause :

• The idea is simple (iterative 'enhance then check' step).
  
• The experience can be saved and transmitted (by describing refactoring recipe.)
• It seems that the process can be made partially automatic.
• It can be applyed to EXISITING project AND new ones.

However I'd definitly like to have more info on this (other links, books) and especially opinion of people who have been using it.
A step by step practical example of refactoring using Test, test::Harness on an existing code would be welcome too...

Anyway, thanks for this info, I've never been so excited about a programming method for long... (stephen++ ;-)
