Abstract

We report on the Ninth International Workshop on Managing Technical Debt, collocated with the 18th International Conference on Agile Software Development (XP 2017) in Cologne. The technical debt research community continues to expand through collaborations of industry, tool vendors, and academia. The theme of this year's workshop was on technical debt in agile development. Presentations and discussion centered on the topics: technical debt at the code level, architectural technical debt assessment, agile approaches and their impact on technical debt management, and selling the business case of technical debt management.
