Any advice for improving the quality of your software team’s pull requests before they head to review? Looking for ways to increase the quality of PRs across the board and reduce the changes needed.

GitHub pre commit hooks that run local linters, test and other automatic checks before each commit.

Pair programming

Don’t do PR but go for trunk based approach:-)

Practice methodologies such as Scrum which make each team member responsible for ensuring that their code is up to scratch before pushing it. 

Will answer at a high level, but happy to elaborate if helpful :)

1. Written standards, agreed on by the team, and an expectation that folks read them when they join the team, as part of a team onboarding process.

2. If your organization is pro-gen-ai, there's tons of potential there for this.

3. Automated code quality systems and tests
