Code review

Code in pull requests made to an application’s wpcomvip GitHub repository should be reviewed before merging and deploying to a production environment. In addition to peer reviews, VIP provides tooling to provide more robust and timely feedback on code in pull requests.

• Automated scans: All pull requests made to a wpcomvip GitHub repository for a WordPress application will undergo automated scans by the VIP Code Analysis Bot.
• Deployment validation tests: Node.js applications can opt in to an automated suite of deployment validation tests that will run against pull requests.
