Code Reviews (Alex Gaynor, Hack.Summit() 2014)

Code Review

(Alex Gaynor, Python Software Foundation)

  • reviewing diffs vs. entire body of code: The latter takes the "why" out of the process
  • "raise the bus factor"
  • ensure readability: counterbalances self-optimization we do when we write code
  • catch bugs: least important purpose of code reviews
  • encourage healthy engineering culture: mechanism for giving and getting regular feedback

Hack to automate style guide reviews during pull requests
# Prerequisites:
#
# * Add pronto, pronto-rubocop, and any other pronto runners to Gemfile's
# development group (TODO: how to run using standalone gems?)
# Add dotenv to project's Gemfile, if necessary (dotenv-rails includes
# it by default)
# * Create a GitHub API token: https://github.com/settings/tokens.
# Give it the following scopes: repo, repo:status
# See this tutorial for more info:
