Description: Static analysis tools do a great job of telling us we write terrible code, but they don't usually provide a bigger picture on where our time is best spent or guidance on where to start. RefactorFirst helps developers prioritize design debt so they can refactor problematic classes that will bring the biggest productivity benefit with the least amount of effort. This presentation will cover: - The God Class criteria that are used to identify and rank classes with design debt - How the impact of refactoring a God Class is measured - How to run RefactorFirst on your Java project - Go over the details in the generated graph and table take a look at a few God classes that are identified. - Time permitting I'll also give a brief walkthrough of the RefactorFirst codebase. If you'd like to look at and use RefactorFirst in the meantime, you can visit github.com/jimbethancourt/RefactorFirst
