Ask HN: How do you get your code reviewed?

At work we use Gerrit, and code has to be reviewed and approved before it gets into origin/master. It's not the prettiest, but it worked well for what we were doing. GitHub also has good reviewing facilities.

If you don't have team members I'm not sure how to get reviewers though...maybe post on HN or a non-proggit subreddit? Or you could just join an open source project.

I have a friend that is building a startup that takes your git repo and hooks it up to a gerrit/jenkins layer. So, it automatically runs commits through the unit tests and gives a +1 if you pass all, and requires another +1 from manual review to make it to production.

It's kinda cool, actually. And obviously, if anyone is interested in beta, send me an email (in my profile).

I personally have never used it but I saw Barkeep (http://getbarkeep.org/) and have it bookmarked as what I want to use on my next project. Barkeep was also featured on HN a little bit back if memory serves.

We just review each other's code within teams at my place of work, and sometimes it is even reviewed by people from other teams. It is a mandate any code should go for an honest line by line review by someone else before it goes into production. We get a lot of feedback about code organization, cleanup, improving flow, etc. I just reviewed two small node.js projects in the last week.

At work, we use Atlassian's Crucible. It's ok, although it tends to get confused on moderately "interesting" git repositories. That said, you can go quite far just printing out the code and writing comments with a pen.

We do high-security work, so code reviews are a standard part of the development process.

Someone recently told me about this service:

Just type in details about your stack and the service suggests different priced experts who can review your code by the hour through screen share.
