Sen4Smells: A Tool for Ranking Sensitive Smells for an Architecture Debt Index

We propose a tool called Sen4Smells that performs an automated sensitivity analysis for a given debt index based on the evolution of both the index values and the corresponding smells across (past) system versions. Sen4Smells is designed as a pipeline that combines information from existing tools for smell detection, predefined debt index formulas, and the Sobol method for sensitivity analysis.
