Technical Debt at the Crossroads of Research and Practice: Report on the Fifth International Workshop on Managing Technical Debt

Abstract

Increasingly, software developers and managers use the metaphor of technical debt to communicate key trade-offs related to release and quality issues. We report here on the Fifth International Workshop on Managing Technical Debt, collocated with the Seventh International Symposium on Empirical Software Engineering and Measurement (ESEM 2013). The workshop participants reiterated the usefulness of the metaphor, shared emerging practices used in software development organizations, and emphasized the need for more research and better means for sharing emerging practices and results.
