UnverifiedCode quality can be backstopped through testing, review, and static analysis, whereas the absence of understanding is a hidden, difficult-to-quantify form of debt.74% similarUnverifiedCommonly used metrics for code quality assessment include cyclomatic complexity, code duplication rate, unit test coverage, and whether SOLID principles are followed.73% similarUnverifiedTechnical debt at startups usually refers to compromising technical decisions made for speed during rapid iteration, such as hardcoded business logic, lack of test coverage, a single-point database, and manual deployment processes.71% similarUnverifiedEvaluating a model's code generation capabilities should be based on success rates across tasks of varying complexity, comprehension of ambiguous requirements, and the ability to self-correct after errors.69% similarUnverifiedCode Scans is well-suited for handling cross-cutting tasks such as technical debt cleanup, code style unification, and large-scale refactoring—tasks with broad scope, low per-point value but high aggregate value.67% similar
