Our current strategy is to use migration classes, each of which performs a specific migration (like Migrate0To1, Migrate1To2, etc.). Each migration is up-only...

... I still want to add alarms for complexity to our automatic build. (C++) ... And NPath complexity which is a measure for the minimum number of test cases. ...
... I presume you meant 'cyclomatic complexity' :) Given that I built a tool that measures complexity in Java code, I'm kind interested in this. Can you tell...
I think just about any metric adds value, *especially* if you track it over time - it's the evolution that seems to make the difference rather than than...
Hi Luke, To be boring, but I think it is an important point, the metrics you list were suggested to detect code smells as opposed to measure code health. An...
Marty is being a very humble. His complexian tool is fantastic and a staple in my builds !! Thanks Marty :) I try to set the complexity ratings as low as...
Well, Luke did say he used the metrics to 'indicate' project health, not 'measure'. An important difference. -- Marty ... [Non-text portions of this message...
I agree with the rest of your post but, on this point, we differ. I'm happy to have a general rule that could be relaxed if it makes the code easier to follow....

Depends on POV. I think these should be counted in the teams velocity - how many story points they get through in an iteration *to their current level of...
Fair call. I've worked in an environment where a portion of the development team considered 'ticking n things off' (where a larger value of n is 'better')...

Without understanding your context and how *you* define things, it makes it difficult to offer you explicit guidance. However, here's some food for thought: -...
