A peer review process where developers inspect each other's code to catch bugs, ensure standards, and share knowledge.
Three examples from work
Peer review
DevCould you do a quick code review on my authentication refactoring PR?
ColleagueSure, I'll review it right after my stand-up call.
Review feedback
ReviewerI left a few constructive comments on your error handling logic.
AuthorThanks, I will address them and push an updated commit.
Engineering standards
LeadEvery pull request requires approval from at least two senior peers during code review.
DevThat keeps our codebase consistent and prevents architectural drift.
Use 'do a code review' or 'conduct code review'. Feedback during code review should focus objectively on architecture, readability, and correctness.
