QUESTION 26 OF 30

What is meant by re-factoring, and how is it used within the agile methodology?

During an interview for an agile SCRUM role, you'll be asked many technical questions. A technical question asks you about either the technology used or terms related to the job for which you are interviewing. These questions can cover a wide range of topics, including processes, techniques, terminology, tools, and technology. Regardless of the topic, the best way to respond to a technical question is to define the term and then discuss some information about it. You may want to provide an example of how you use the item to do your work.

"The term re-factoring, as used within the context of agile, means changing the internal structure or code for a piece of software or an application without changing how the application performs or functions. A developer will use re-factoring to improve the structure of the code and make it easier to manage. A commonly used re-factoring technique is Red-Green. This process helps to make the code easier to read, easier to understand, and easier to manage. I encourage all of my developers to continuously refactor their code."
