Technical debt tracker
======================

[](#technical-debt-tracker)

> As with monetary debt, if technical debt is not repaid, it can accumulate 'interest', making it harder to implement changes.

🐿️ In a nutshell
----------------

[](#️-in-a-nutshell)

Use PHP annotations *(docblocks annotations)* to monitor your technical debt.

```
/**
  * @TechnicalDebt(
  *     categories={"tightly coupled", "lack of test"},
  *     reporter="Flavien Rodrigues",
  *     description="Lorem ipsum sit dolor amet"
  * )
  */
class DummyService
{
    // ...
}
```

Then run our script as CI step and record the result into your monitoring tool.

```
vendor/bin/technical-debt-tracker

```

---------------------------

[](#-technical-debt-monitoring)

Our practice is to visualize technical debt over time *(purple line)*. We add a trending line *(grey)* and define the point where updating the codebase will be impossible *(red line)*. Now it's also possible to define SMART goals *(green line)*.
