In the past we've looked at the specifics of what to look for in code review and code review best practices in Upsource, in this webinar recording we take a step back to look at what we're trying to achieve with our code reviews, so we can maximize the value of the code review and minimize the pain. https://youtu.be/a9_0UUUNt-Y About presenter: Trisha has developed Java applications for a range of industries, including finance, manufacturing, software and non-profit, for compani

We've recently published a screencast highlighting some of the best practices teams may want to keep in mind when approaching code reviews.
