Participating in Code Reviews as a Tester Code reviews are a popular method of catching bugs early in development through peer-reviewing someone’s code.

Because testers question software differently from developers, it’s important that we participate in this knowledge-sharing practice. |

The Largest Case Study of Code Reviews—Ever In May 2006, we wrapped up the largest case study of peer code review ever published, done at Cisco Systems®. The software was MeetingPlace® — Cisco's computer-based audio and video teleconferencing solution. Over 10 months, 50 developers on three continents reviewed every code change before it was checked into version control. We collected data from 2500 reviews of a total of 3.2 million lines of code. This article summarizes our findings. |
