Code Review - art or science?

Speakers: 

Critiquing code is a critical part of any good development process. If you don't review your code or want to improve or expand on your current review processes, this session is for you. I want to cover:

  • the different types of code review - from pair programming to formal.
  • benefits of code review.
  • helpful techniques for reading someone else's code.
  • how to communicate effectively with code authors.
  • building a code review practice into your development process.
  • why you should enforce coding standards.
  • demonstrate tools for enforcing Drupal coding standards and best practices.
  • look at the tools available code review such as github, gerrit and dreditor.

Sometimes, it's argued that we don't have time or can't afford to review code. I want to convince everyone they can't afford not to review their code!
