Visual Debts Analytics: Exploring Technical Debts Through Multidimensional Linked Views

 

Resumo do trabalho

 

The increasing use of digital technologies causes large-scale data production and, consequently, greater demand for the use of data analysis techniques that help users to obtain a better understanding of the data. An inherent challenge in this context is to analyze a large volume of complex and heterogeneous data, such as data conceived by software repositories. Areas such as Software Visualization and Visual Software Analytics have become increasingly used to support developers in software comprehension by providing a visual panorama of the entire software development process. Those graphical representations provided useful information extraction, especially for system maintenance when analyzing technical debts. However, the related works that permeate this theme do not use multidimensional visualizations to identify and track distinct groups of technical debts. In this sense, the proposal presents the Visual Debts Analytics tool, an approach based on Visual Analytics consisting of multiple coordinated multidimensional visualizations for the analysis of different groups of technical debts in software repositories. In particular, the proposed technique aims to identify and track the distribution and evolution of various groups of technical debts in open-source software repositories. To evaluate our approach we presented case studies in two different repositories that demonstrate the impact of technical debts in software development process.
