# Code Review

# For creators

  • Code Review may take up to 2 days. If you haven't got any response on the second day mention necessary teammates in threads during a morning "MR Digest".
  • Treat the review as additional training. Your colleagues will help you find mistakes and skills to improve. And the general quality of the code will become better.
  • You are not your code. Your colleagues comment only on your code, not your personality.
  • If you see a comment with Nit: (Nitpicking) prefix that means it's up to you to decide either to make changes or not.

# For reviewers

  • Use Gitlab Workflow (opens new window) extension for VSCode. It make much easier to review complex MR.
  • Begin your day reviewing current merge requests and review them when you have free time for it.
  • First, take a quick glance at the changes, then review them again in more detail.
  • Avoid direct instructions, ask specific questions. Your colleague may not have the experience you have and may not understand your general questions or hints.
  • If you found the typo correct it yourself. Click the Edit button and make changes.
  • Don't forget to click Finish Code Review after the review is finished.
  • If everything is correct click Approve.
  • Begin your comment with Nit: (Nitpicking) prefix for cases when you have some proposals, but it's up to the maker to decide whether to change anything or not.
  • If the question you asked is resolved click Mark as Resolved. The one who left the comment should watch its resolution.
