摘要:Code Review is a useful technique for detecting defects in the code. It can considerably enhance quality and reduce effort during testing. An important part of the code review process is the use of a checklist to examine the program for common defects. A checklist is a cross reference list stated in the form of questions, concentrates on providing hints to enable reviewers detecting the defects. In this paper a technique for code review is proposed that makes use of a weighted checklist, a checklist in which weights are assigned to different checklist items. Using this technique, a flavor of quantification can be given to code review by computing a code review metric termed Code Review Score (CRS) on the basis of compliance of code under review for a checklist item and the weight assigned to the respective checklist item. It is proven that information expressed in quantitative terms is always more effective to be put into use for analysis, comparison and verification purposes so is the objective of proposing this technique to obtain the code review results in quantities that can be used to manage and track the detection of defects more effectively.
