Abstract: In this paper, a tremendous attitude of research towards refactoring the software is presented. This paper presents the areas where refactoring can be applied. The Scope of refactoring, how to refactor, when to refactor, impact of refactoring an a quality of software, different methods used, basic principles in refactoring software artifacts and the related work which needs to improve are presented. This paves the way for improvement, giving rise to many more research fields.
