Review Bot

==========



Welcome to Review Bot!



Review Bot automates parts of the code review process, using a wide range of

industry-standard code checking tools to look over your code and catch

problems so your developers can focus on the bigger picture.



It is:



* **Made for Review Board:** Tools are configured through Review Board's

  existing Integrations_ functionality, letting you choose exactly when and how

  tools are run within your organization.



* **Scalable:** Review Bot is built using Celery_ and can scale out to service

  very large Review Board deployments.



* **Extensible:** Writing plugins is simple using a convenient API to retrieve

  code files and craft a review. If more power is needed, tools can access the

  full Review Board API.



Premium support for Review Bot is included with any `Review Board support

contract`_.
