spaghetti code

In computer programming, a code that is poorly structured and which makes it hard to update because of multiple undocumented and unexpected links/dependencies. You touch it in one place and you see other things get broken or modified in an unexpected way. Just like sticky spaghetti - you pull one end and you see a number of places start moving.

This spaghetti code brings 5 different modules in an impact analysis.
I can either waste a week re-testing all of them or just re-write this piece from scratch in 2 hours.
