Benifits of code review

0Milinda • 27th Jun 2008 • Uncategorized

Here is the Wikipedia's definition for 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.

As explained in wikipedia, code review actually help us to identify mistake we have done, techniques that can used to improve our code and many more. As far as I know, experience we get by participate in code review is enormous. In his post about code reviews that we regularly doing at WSO2, Samisa discuss what are the benifits we can get from code review and why it is so important to us who actually do code every day. And also I would like to point to my previous post about the 'Beautiful Code' book got from Google as a gift, which contained a nice excerpt about examine code that written by others.
