Suffering from review fatigue? Here’s how to level up your code review process.
Code review is something we do daily in engineering teams, but it doesn’t get enough attention. As engineering leaders, how might we optimize processes around code review to reduce stress and maximize growth opportunities for our engineers?
In this article, I’ll talk about two key code review concepts that I’ve applied in my own teams to support and grow my reports. The first approach is about minimizing focus on trivial issues and maximizing focus on issues that lead to learning. The second concept is about culture, and adopting appropriate language and attitudes around code reviews.
