Thread: Important things about Code Reviews

Code reviews are very important aspect of a software development process. The things I know about these are code review helps in gaining efficiency of a code written, helps in finding the bugs, helps in achieving the optimization techniques and so on. But I want to know what are the vital things one has to bear to in mind while doing code reviews ? Share your ideas here.

The most important aspect to bear in mind while doing code review is to get all components and system even the resources together so that redundancy is reduced and efficiency is increased. It is also important that for achieving a very good code review one has to develop standard for developing codes like naming variables, file names etc. So that consistency is maintained across the system.

Yes as said by Norman all resources involve in code review in other words even senior programmers would have their code reviewed by others and they review other code. Though we cannot list all the things of code reviews which are numerous some of the important aspects which are very important to look while doing code review are to look for naming conventions, standards, consistency of code, redundancy and so on.

Very nice participation and good ideas and points about code reviews shared in detail which I hope would definetly help the people reading this post.
