Not everything always goes according to plan in a project: functions are implemented incorrectly, architectures are poorly planned and errors often occur in the source code. These errors that need to be corrected are known as ‘technical debt’ and arise in every project. In this session, we will show how such debts can be analysed, managed and strategically reduced. In addition to theory and numerous practical examples, we will also present the appropriate tooling that can be helpful in dealing with these debts.
