摘要：
Refactoring tools can improve the speed and accuracy with which developers create and maintain software - but only if they are used. In practice, tools are not used as much as they could be; this seems to be because sometimes they do not align with the refactoring tactic preferred by most programmers, a tactic the authors call floss refactoring." They propose five principles that characterize successful floss-refactoring tools'principles that can help programmers to choose the most appropriate refactoring tools and also help toolsmiths to design tools that fit the programmer's purpose. © 2008 IEEE."
