New page:
When reviewing tickets in Apache JIRA, the following items should be covered as 
part of the review process:

||General|| ||
|| || Does it conform to the [[CodeStyle|Code Style]] guidelines?||
|| || Is there any redundant or duplicate code? ||
|| || Is the code as modular as possible? ||
|| || Can any singletons be avoided? ||
|| || Can any of the code be replaced with library functions? ||
|| || Are units of measurement used in the code consistent, both internally and 
with the rest of the ecosystem? ||
|| || ||
|| Error-Handling || ||
|| || Are all data inputs and outputs checked (for the correct type, length, 
format, and range) and encoded? ||
|| || Where third-party utilities are used, are returning errors being caught? 
||
|| || Are invalid parameter values handled? ||
|| || Are any Throwable/Exceptions passed to the JVMStabilityInspector? ||
|| || Are errors well-documented?  Does the error message tell the user how to 
proceed? ||
|| || Do exceptions propagate to the appropriate level in the code? ||
|| || ||
|| Documentation || ||
|| || Do comments exist and describe the intent of the code (the "why", not the 
"how")? ||
|| || Are javadocs added where appropriate? ||
|| || Is any unusual behavior or edge-case handling described? ||
|| || Are data structures and units of measurement explained? ||
|| || Is there any incomplete code? If so, should it be removed or flagged with 
a suitable marker like ‘TODO’? ||
|| || Does the code self-document via clear naming, abstractions, and flow 
control? ||
|| || Have NEWS.txt, the cql3 docs, and the native protocol spec been updated 
if needed? ||
|| || Is the ticket tagged with "client-impacting" and "doc-impacting", where 
appropriate? ||
|| || Has lib/licences been updated for third-party libs? Are they Apache 
License compatible? ||
|| || Is the Component on the JIRA ticket set appropriately? ||
|| || ||
|| Testing || ||
|| || Is the code testable? i.e. don’t add too many or hide dependencies, 
unable to initialize objects, test frameworks can use methods etc. ||
|| || Do tests exist and are they comprehensive? ||
|| || Do unit tests actually test that the code is performing the intended 
functionality? ||
|| || Could any test code use common functionality (e.g. ccm, dtest, or 
CqlTester methods) or abstract it there for reuse? ||
|| || If the code may be affected by multi-node clusters, are there dtests? ||
|| || If the code may take a long time to test properly, are there CVH tests? ||
|| || Is the test passing on CI for all affected branches (up to trunk, if 
applicable)?  Are there any regressions? ||
|| || If patch affects read/write path, did we test for performance regressions 
w/multiple workloads? ||
|| || If adding a new feature, were tests added and performed confirming it 
meets the expected SLA/use-case requirements for the feature? ||
|| || ||
|| Logging || ||
|| || Are logging statements logged at the correct level? ||
|| || Are there logs in the critical path that could affect performance? ||
|| || Is there any log that could be added to communicate status or 
troubleshoot potential problems in this feature? ||
|| || Can any unnecessary logging statement be removed? ||
