SCM Rework report
In this example, we consider a software development team working on a given project.
Over the past month, the team has been working on enhancing the existing codebase to add new features and fix bugs. Here's a breakdown of the code changes made during this period:
File | Lines Added | Lines Deleted | Lines Modified |
---|---|---|---|
file1.js | 10 | 5 | 20 |
file2.py | 0 | 0 | 30 |
file3.cpp (new) | 15 | 0 | 0 |
file4.java | 0 | 8 | 0 |
Assuming that file1.js
, file2.py
, and file4.java
are considered Legacy Code (older than the configured time threshold), we can calculate the various metrics as follows:
Total Refactored Lines Total Refactored Lines = Total Lines Modified + Total Lines Deleted = (20 + 30) + (5 + 8) = 50 + 13 = 63
Total Legacy Rework Lines Total Legacy Rework Lines = Lines Modified in Legacy Files + Lines Deleted in Legacy Files = (20 + 30) + (5 + 8) = 50 + 13 = 63
Total New Lines Total New Lines = Total Lines Added in New Files = 15 (added in file3.cpp)
Total lines changed Total lines changed = Total Refactored Lines + Total New Lines = 63 + 15 = 78
Percentage of Rework Percentage of Rework = (Total Refactored Lines / Total lines changed) * 100 = (63 / 78) * 100 = 80.77%
Percentage of Legacy Rework Percentage of Legacy Rework = (Total Legacy Rework Lines / Total lines changed) * 100 = (63 / 78) * 100 = 80.77%
In this example, we can see that a significant portion of the code changes (80.77%) involved refactoring existing code, with the same percentage being attributed to legacy code rework. The team also added 15 new lines of code to the codebase.
A high Percentage of Rework and Percentage of Legacy Rework may indicate potential issues with Code Quality, changing requirements, or the need for refactoring the existing codebase.
