Hey all! My team at work is struggling with growing pains of getting into a formalized review process, so I was wondering if any of you guys have some things to live or die by in your code reviews. How much of it is manual, or how much is just static code analysis + style guide stuff, etc?
Midwestern b tier company:
Test your code on its own branch. Make sure it’s not fucked
Pr to dev, do code review with devs that call you out on your bullshit (were all lazy sometimes)
Whip up QA doc, send the ticket to the QA queue
Confirm with BU that all their bases are covered and nothing is missing
Repeat steps for inevitable wishy washy scope creep from BA who wants to have inevitable meetings that could be done in emails
Complete merge to dev, merge dev to master, and tell devops that it’s ready to go
Ah yes, sounds about right. I particularly prefer the “make sure it’s not fucked” step, very effective😂 I’d like to get more formal code reviews in place with my current team, I think we could all benefit.
