Refactoring Workbook Review by Lloyd Jeffries
Improving code is key to building a quality enterprise
Learning to make what you already have better WITHOUT negatively impacting the enterprise or rewriting what you already have is a key skill that this book teaches and preaches. Understanding what it means to successfully refactor something is well worth the effort, especially if you are interested in getting into the world of service oriented architecture.
Services can be refactored after they are deployed because they can maintain a consistent external interface or contract that others form dependencies to. THis allows us to apply the concepts and techniques described in this book in order to build not only increasingly robust code but also increasingly valuable code in the form of reusable services.
The author does a good job of organising the content and explaining the application through examples. This book is helping my team with a specific project that requires us to revisit but no rewrite a collection of existing components.
