When you first hear the name RefactorErl, your think it is "just another refactoring tool". This is not true! In this talk Melinda is going to speak about a static source code analysis and transformation tool for Erlang, called RefactorErl. She's going to introduce you to the main features of a code comprehension and refactoring tool and give a step-by-step demo to show them starting from the initial setup. A new web interface will be presented as well. And last, but not least, she will present how such a tool can be used to find parallel pattern candidates.
Let me give you some keywords: user defined queries, dependency visualisation, investigations, dynamic call analysis, collaborative work support, etc.
