Abstract

Code Review is an essential activity to ensure the quality of the software in the development process. Code Review Automation with various analyses can reduce human efforts of code review activities. However, it is a challenge to automate the code review process for large-scale companies such as Samsung Electronics due to their complex development environments: many kinds of products, various sizes of software, different version control systems, and diverse code review systems. In this work, we show how we automated the code review process for those intricate environments, and share some lessons learned during two years of operation. Our unified code review automation system, Code Review Bot, is designed to process review requests holistically regardless of such environments. Our findings provide practical evidence that our system motivates developers in Samsung Electronics to improve code quality.

在不同的开发环境下，大规模工业的统一代码审查自动化

代码审查是在开发过程中确保软件质量的一项重要活动。具有各种分析的代码审查自动化可以减少代码审查活动的人力。然而，对于像三星电子这样的大型企业来说，由于其复杂的开发环境(多种产品、各种规模的软件、不同的版本控制系统和不同的代码审查系统)，使代码审查过程自动化是一项挑战。在这项工作中，我们展示了如何为那些复杂的环境自动化代码审查过程，并分享了在两年的操作中获得的一些经验教训。我们的统一的代码审查自动化系统，代码审查机器人，被设计来处理审查请求，而不考虑这样的环境。我们的研究结果提供了实际的证据，证明我们的系统可以激励三星电子的开发人员提高代码质量。
