SonarQube: How many hours in a day of technical debt?
If SonarQube says I have 1 day of technical debt in a project, does that translate to 24 hours of technical debt or 8 hours of technical debt?
Solution
The translation from hours into days is customisable. By default it's 8 hours, but you can find out your setting by going to Administration > Configuration > Technical Debt.
