Code Review

Code review is systematic examination (often as peer review) of computer source code intended to find and fix mistakes overlooked in the initial development phase, improving both the overall quality of software and the developers’ skills.In my experience with current company, i will recommended people to do a code review with each others because sometimes our team members will give you a better idea to make you code more quality. Here some technique to do a code review

• Over-the-shoulder – One developer looks over the author’s shoulder as the latter walks through the code.
• Email pass-around – Source code management system emails code to reviewers automatically after checkin is made.
• Pair Programming – Two authors develop code together at the same workstation, such as is common in Extreme Programming.
• Tool-assisted code review – Authors and reviewers use specialized tools designed for peer code review. Programmers often find tool-assisted code review to be less tedious and more efficient than some other methods.

How about yourself? Are you doing code reviews in your company?
