Code reviews are essential for maintaining code quality and fostering team collaboration. While pair or team programming is often preferred for immediate feedback, asynchronous code reviews are a valuable alternative when real-time collaboration isn't feasible. This article explores the challenges of asynchronous code reviews, such as delayed feedback and less effective communication, and offers practical strategies to their effectiveness. Key recommendations include providing timely feedback, setting clear expectations, focusing on test coverage, staying curious, and using code reviews as learning opportunities. Adopting these practices can ensure high-quality code, promote knowledge sharing, and maintain a strong collaborative dynamic, even when working asynchronously.

A responsive development environment, automated tests managed by engineers, and distinct deployments from releases are key. Embrace real-time code reviews for immediate insights. The intersection of automation, collaboration, and swift feedback defines developer success. How are your feedback loops?

We did it. Roughly two years after I joined BRYTER and one year after we started the developer experience team, we finally ended the era of manual deployments for roughly 15 teams.

If you do not test in production, your customers are the only ones, who do. While it sounds scary at first, testing in production is an important addition to pre-production quality assurance processes.
