Abstract

Software code smells are regarded as signs of potential problems in code design or implementation, they might not affect functionality but impact future maintenance and readability. However, refactoring is a process of code transformation that improves code structure without changing code behavior. This process occurs in the stage of software maintenance where software developers and software quality managers/engineers must work closely in order to identify code smells and plan for refactoring. This research aims to investigate the role of quality managers and software developers in creating code smells.
