Code Style and Quality

Check that the code follows the organization's coding standards and conventions.

Ensure the code is readable and maintainable with clear variable and function names.

Verify that the code does not contain any obvious security vulnerabilities.

Look for efficient use of algorithms and data structures to optimize performance.

Testing and Reliability

Confirm that unit tests cover the new changes and are passing.

Check for the existence of integration tests and end-to-end tests where applicable.

Ensure there is adequate error handling and logging for troubleshooting.

Review the tests for potential edge cases and boundary conditions.

Documentation and Comments

Check that any changes in the codebase are reflected in the associated documentation.

Ensure comments are used appropriately to explain complex code logic.

Review inline comments and documentation for clarity and accuracy.

Design and Architecture

Assess if the changes are consistent with the existing system architecture.

Ensure the code does not duplicate existing functionality within the codebase.

Review the design for scalability and check if it adheres to SOLID principles.

Consider the impact of the changes on the system's performance and resource usage.

Code Integration and Compatibility

Make sure the code follows the branching and merging strategies of the project.

Verify that the code does not break any existing functionality.

Check for proper integration with external services and dependencies.

Ensure that the code is compatible with all target platforms and devices.

Security and Compliance
