Research in Refactoring Tools

Refactoring

Refactoring is the process of modifying existing source codebase in a structured and incremental way while preserving its external behavior. This process preserves the functionality of the program without introducing new bugs. Refactoring also promotes reuse of the existing codebase for other purposes thus increasing code reusability.
