10 Best Practices For Peer Code Review
- 1. 1@SmartBear @CollaboratorSB #CodeReview 10 BEST PRACTICES FOR PEER CODE REVIEW 1@SmartBear @CollaboratorSB #CodeReview
- 2. 2@SmartBear @CollaboratorSB #CodeReview 1. Review Fewer Than 400 Lines Of Code At A Time • Reviewing 200-400 lines of code over 60 to 90 minutes, should yield 70-90% defect discovery. • Reading beyond 400 lines of code, the ability to find defects diminishes
- 4. 4@SmartBear @CollaboratorSB #CodeReview 2. Aim For An Inspection Rate Of Less Than 300-500 Lines Of Code Per Hour Code reviews that happen in a reasonable quantity and at a slower pace for a limited amount of time results in the most effective code review.
- 6. 6@SmartBear @CollaboratorSB #CodeReview 3. Do Not Review For More Than 60 Minutes At A Time • Performance starts dropping off after about 60 minutes of work – reviewers wear out and stop finding defects. • Studies show that taking breaks over a period of time can improve the quality of work.
- 7. 7@SmartBear @CollaboratorSB #CodeReview 4. Authors Should Annotate Source Code Before The Review Begin • Annotations should be directed at other reviewers to ease the process and provide more depth in context. • As an added benefit, the author will often find additional errors before the peer review even begins. • More bugs found prior to peer review will yield in lower defect density because fewer bugs exist overall.
- 9. 9@SmartBear @CollaboratorSB #CodeReview 5. Set Quantifiable Goals & Capture Metrics To Improve Processes • Decide in advance the goals of the code review process and how you will effectively measure them. • Include internal process metrics such as inspection rate, defect rate, and defect density.
- 10. 10@SmartBear @CollaboratorSB #CodeReview 6. Use A Checklist For Both Reviewers & Authors Checklists are the most effective way to eliminate frequently made errors and to combat the challenges of omission finding.
- 11. 11@SmartBear @CollaboratorSB #CodeReview 7. Establish A Process For Fixing Defects Found To ensure that bugs get fixed, use a collaborative code review tool that allows reviewers to log bugs, discuss them with the author and approve changes.
- 12. 12@SmartBear @CollaboratorSB #CodeReview 8. Foster A Positive Code Review Culture • In order for peer code review to be successful, it’s extremely important that mangers create a culture of collaboration and learning in peer review. • Peer review also allows junior team members to learn from senior leaders and for even the most experienced programmers to break bad habits.
- 13. 13@SmartBear @CollaboratorSB #CodeReview 9. Embrace The Subconscious Implications Of Peer Review • "Spot checking" 20% to 33% of the code resulted in lower defect density with minimal time expenditure. • Lessen the likelihood of the “Big Brother” effect by using metrics & reports to help improve a developers work
- 14. 14@SmartBear @CollaboratorSB #CodeReview 10. Practice Lightweight Code Reviews • To fully optimize your team´s time and to effectively measure its results, a lightweight, tool-assisted process is recommended. • Lightweight code review takes less than 20% the time of formal reviews and finds just as many bugs
