Webinar Description
Key Takeaways
- Demonstrates creating custom code review rules using natural language
- Covers automated pull request validation against ticket objectives
- Explores the full automation spectrum from blocking to auto-merging
- Aimed at development teams seeking to standardise code review practices
About the Event
This APJ session is the second in a series focused on Gitar, a tool for automated pull request review. The webinar moves beyond basic functionality to demonstrate how teams can customise the platform to enforce their own coding standards and review criteria.
Custom Rules and Validation
The session includes a live demonstration of writing a review rule in plain English, committing it, and observing enforcement on subsequent pull requests. Presenters will show how to link pull requests to tickets and have the system evaluate whether code changes meet the stated objectives.
Automation Capabilities
The webinar covers the full range of automated actions available: blocking, fixing, approving and merging pull requests. These automation rules are written in natural language, giving teams control over when each action triggers.
Recent Feature Updates
The session will cover recently shipped capabilities including knowledge features that learn from team review conversations, cross-repository analysis that detects when changes in one repository may break another, and the option to run model calls on your own account.
Who Should Attend
This session is designed for development teams looking to reduce friction in code review by codifying standards that are frequently debated. Attendees are encouraged to bring a specific standard their team argues about in code review to see it converted into an enforceable rule during the session.
