However maybe there is less resistance to doing | restructuring of the system when it is needed with agile methods? I think there is less resistance: 1 - because of the continuously up to date regression test suite, changes are less risky, 2 - and also because it's well known for the management that in agile method, 5 to 10% of the time is dedicated to refactoring, so you don't feel unconfortable announcing that you are back working on an existing stuff. Restructuring is now accepted and not considered more or less like a flaw in your previous work. Hopefully, none of those point (complete regression testing and smart managment) is specific to Agile method. -- Lionel Draghi
