Preface

Upgrading estimates


In this section, we are going to look at the core components that are responsible for the estimates of the upgrade process. The components that are to be considered while estimating for the upgrade process are as follows:

  • Code upgrade

  • Object transformation

  • Data upgrade

  • Testing and implementation

Code upgrade

The best method to estimate the code upgrade is to use a file compare tool. It helps us compare the file, folder, version control, conflicts and resolution, automatic intelligent merging, in-place editing of files, track changes, and code analysis.

Tip

You can use third-party tools for this. Or, you can use a version control system such as GitHub to compare files. Refer to Chapter 6, Version Control and Code Management.

You can also design your own compare tool if you want, for example, take two version of the same object, take two versions of Customer table. Open them in Notepad and check line by line whether there is any difference in the line, and then get that line value...
