We spoke with Coderockr’s CEO, Elton Minetto.
Before Codacy
Coderockr has had a strong workflow in place for some time now.
Each task on their projects becomes a pull request, and these must be approved by two other team members before they are merged.
A few years ago Coderockr included code reviews in their daily process, with great results. However, even seeing great improvement in their code, they needed to keep this process as agile as the other aspects of their work. Their pursuit for a tool to improve their code review process led them to Codacy.
With Codacy
The first thing they noticed was the time they were saving:
“With Codacy our code review process became fast and precise, especially thanks to the integration with GitHub and Slack. Now our team can receive an analysis in each commit and improve the code right away.”
But that’s not all:
“And a healthy competition started, with every team member looking for a better grade in the commits.”
Which leads us to the other main advantage: better code.
As Coderockr works with so many projects during the year, it’s mandatory for them to ensure all projects are maintainable and easy to evolve.
“When we compare our current projects with the old ones, before implementing code reviews and Codacy, we can easily see the difference. This difference proves that we are in a better way now, using better tools and processes.”
Final Words
Regarding the benefits of using Codacy, Elton mentions that not using it not an alternative:
“Without tools like Codacy it’s impossible to scale a team and keep the code reviews as a core value as we do.”
The best thing about Codacy?
“The integrations. Receiving status updates on the quality of each commit on GitHub interface and Slack is a key feature to keep the code reviews as a core value as we do.”
