Code Review, A Software Engineer's Best Friend

One of the most powerful software quality tools are code reviews - an activity in which a developer, other than the author, examines a software deliverable for defects, and improvement opportunities. For a new Engineer, a code review can be a valuable learning resource, and for a more experienced Engineer it can be a good teaching mechanism when done properly. Whether you are a fresh college graduate, or a Senior Engineer with multiple years of experience under your belt, this talk will take you on the journey of a team that transformed their code review process from being vague and lacking, to being the biggest investment of their resulting, high quality code output. By the end of this talk your perspective on code reviews should change and you will approach code reviews as what they really are - a Software Engineer's Best Friend (woof! woof!)
