Controlling Technical Debt With Continuous Delivery

Discover how to effectively manage technical debt through continuous delivery in this 47-minute conference talk from Devoxx. Explore the concept of technical debt as a metaphor for understanding the consequences of accepting poor programming practices for short-term gains. Learn why relying solely on static code analysis tools like PMD or CheckStyle is insufficient for controlling technical debt in a continuous delivery environment. Gain insights into innovative approaches for incremental checking and fixing of code issues using Fabric8 and Jenkins. Understand how to define, check, and fix pipelines for static code analysis tools automatically, ensuring that every contribution is thoroughly analyzed and validated before merging or deployment. Benefit from the expertise of speakers Raquel Pau, project leader of Walkmod, and Alex Soto, a Red Hat software engineer and contributor to various open-source projects, as they share their experiences and strategies for maintaining code quality in fast-paced development environments.
