“…In addition, SAST has been shown to generate misleading or irrelevant warnings [157], [158]. Many researchers have investigated the effect of refactoring techniques on software quality attributes such as maintainability, understandability, testability, adaptability, modifiability, and reusability [159], [160], [161], [162]. However, it is observed that software refactoring does not always improve all software quality attributes [159], [161], [163], [164].…”

However, it is observed that software refactoring does not always improve all software quality attributes [159], [161], [163], [164]. Recent studies showed that the effects of refactoring techniques on software quality attributes are inconsistent and contradictory [164].…”

“…Moreover, the particular sequence in which refactoring techniques are carried out can have different impacts on quality attributes [8], [33]. Consequently, it becomes challenging to differentiate the individual impacts of each refactoring technique or draw definitive conclusions about their impact on quality [13], [34]. A harmful practice is failing to recognize the refactoring techniques used or failing to use each technique separately [30].…”

“…Using refactoring techniques to improve software quality presents challenges for developers, given the inconsistent or contradictory results regarding their effects [8], [34]. Chaparro et al [35] highlight the difficulty developers face in assessing the advantages and disadvantages of refactoring techniques, which becomes even more complex when dealing with conflicting techniques.…”
