Code Review

In my code reviews, I critique the quality/maintainability of Redmine enhancements, including plugins.

In order to verify a section of code was developed properly, it needs exhaustive testing. All bugs, version issues, or potential code weaknesses must be discovered & documented.

Plans

I offer a variety of code review plans to suit the size and amount depth of review you need. You can select one from below or contact me for a custom plan.

Why Come to Me for Expert Code Reviews?

Advantages of my approach include:

  • Early discovery of bugs.
  • An expert’s opinion on the code’s efficiency and overall quality.
  • A detailed report of my findings.

Code review is not just about finding bugs though! I also compile a list of possible version issues, suggested code improvements, and an estimate of the programming time needed to fix/complete the code.

Why Not Run Automated Tests Instead?

Automated tests don’t cut it alone. In Code Complete: A Practical Handbook of Software Construction by Steve McConnell, research found that expert code review can be up to twice as effective as automated software testing.

I’m an expert in Redmine development. My own 25+ plugins (developed in Ruby and Ruby on Rails) have been downloaded over 17,000 times. I help lead the Redmine development community by contributing to the Official Redmine Blog, the RailsBridge Group, and Redmine itself.
