Review Workflow Tips

Tools

• git review - The same tool we use for submitting patches for review has some options that assist with the review process. See the git-review man page for more details.
• ReviewDay - A dashboard that prioritizes reviews based on blueprint/bug priority and automated test results
• next-review - A command line to help you choose the next review to do, primarily based on its age while automatically skipping what you have already reviewed.
• Import Changes - A prioritized list of reviews built in to gerrit.
• Emacs Gerrit Download - An Emacs mode to download and show reviews.

Gerrit Queries

You can create a query that shows you the reviews across multiple projects and branches at the same time. For example:

https://review.openstack.org/#/q/status:open+(project:openstack/nova+OR+project:openstack/python-novaclient+OR+project:openstack/oslo-incubator+OR+project:openstack/oslo.config)+(branch:master+OR+branch:stable/grizzly),n,z
