[**\[Experimental Bot, please feedback here\]**](https://github.com/search?q=repo%3Aapache%2Fnuttx+13552&type=issues) This PR template provides a good starting point for ensuring NuttX contributions meet community standards. Here's a concise review: **Strengths:** * **Comprehensive:** Covers key aspects like summary, impact assessment, and testing. * **Structured:** Well-organized with clear headings and expectations. * **User-focused:** Emphasizes impact on users and compatibility. * **Emphasis on Verification:** Requires explicit confirmation of testing and provides sections for pre- and post-change logs. * **Transparency:** Acknowledges the origins of the requirements and encourages feedback. **Areas for Improvement:** * **Enforceability:** While the template is comprehensive, some sections rely on subjective answers (e.g., "Anything else to consider?"). Consider adding more specific checklists or prompts where possible to make reviews more objective. * **Conciseness in the Template Itself:** The introductory explanation could be shortened. Simply stating "This template ensures PRs meet NuttX contribution requirements" is sufficient. The note at the end can also be removed or integrated as a comment in the template. * **Specific Testing Requirements:** Encourage more specific testing descriptions. "Works as intended" is vague. Suggest adding prompts for specific test cases, expected outcomes, and performance metrics where applicable. Consider providing links to general testing guidelines. * **Code Style/Formatting:** While not explicitly mentioned, it's crucial. Add a section or link regarding adherence to NuttX coding style and formatting guidelines. * **Security Considerations:** The "Impact on security" section is good, but could be strengthened with specific questions, e.g., "Does this change introduce any new potential vulnerabilities?" or "Have any security analysis tools been used?" * **Documentation Location:** Clarify *where* documentation updates should be placed (e.g., within the code, in a separate file, etc.) **TODO Points:** The mention of "TODO points" is unclear. If this refers to items within the template itself, address them before finalizing the template. **Suggestion for Improvement (Example - Testing):** Instead of: ``` Testing logs before change: ``` Consider: ``` Testing Methodology: [Briefly describe the testing approach used] Test Cases: * [Test Case 1]: Expected Outcome: [Expected result], Actual Outcome: [Observed result] * [Test Case 2]: Expected Outcome: [Expected result], Actual Outcome: [Observed result] Test Logs (Before Change): ``` By addressing these points, the PR template can be even more effective in ensuring high-quality contributions to the NuttX project. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
