PR Review

Definitions

1. The process of reviewing a pull request for correctness, style, architecture, tests, and maintainability before merging. PR review is both a technical safeguard and a cultural mechanism for mentoring, shared context, and quality norms.

   In plain English: Reviewing a proposed code change before it is merged.

   Example: "The bug would have been caught if the PR review had focused on the migration path instead of just the linter output."
