Duplicate code is one of the most pungent code smells. A rule that is often used is to re-structure code once it is duplicated in three or more places.
Common duplication problems, and corresponding solutions are:
1 | <?php |
||
20 | View Code Duplication | class NotificationBodySpec extends ObjectBehavior |
|
|
|||
21 | { |
||
22 | function it_does_not_create_notification_body_without_body() |
||
27 | |||
28 | function it_creates_a_notification_body() |
||
34 | } |

Duplicated code is one of the most pungent code smells. If you need to duplicate the same code in three or more different places, we strongly encourage you to look into extracting the code into a single class or operation.
