Improving Developer Experience with Streamlined Code Reviews
Axolo is a GitHub/GitLab integration for Slack dedicated to helping engineering teams review pull/merge requests.
With Axolo, tech teams can collaborate on pull requests seamlessly. Each pull request creates a temporary Slack channel where all information (deployments, pull request checks, and code comments) will be shared.
Axolo takes all of the normal back-and-forths on GitHub and Slack to centralize the conversation in ephemeral pull request channels. But this is only step 1!
Features:
- An ephemeral Slack channel for each pull request: Axolo opens a Slack channel each time one of your collaborators opens a pull request. Only people that should be invited (reviewers & assignees) are invited.
- PRs reminders: Set up Axolo to send daily reminders in stale PRs.
- A complete synch for code reviews: Each GitHub code review comment creates a new Slack thread. Then, the following comments from GitHub or Slack are sent to the other tool.
- High-level view on your team's PRs: With team-specific notifications, Axolo will send new pull request notifications in team channels and react upon the status of the PR (awaiting review, work in progress, mergeable, ...).
- Approve pull requests with /lgtm: Developers can use /lgtm to approve a pull request directly in PR channels!
- All your PRs are a command away: Ask /axolo open to show all open PR of your organization, /axolo me for your open PRs, and /axolo team [name of your team] to show all PRs from a specific team.
- Organize your stand-ups with daily PR recap: You can set up Axolo to send daily PR recap to specific channels to organize your stand-ups.
- Dedicated times for code review: Organize your time with code review time slots and let Axolo notify you only when you're available. Save your development sessions from distractions.
Axolo is a bidirectional GitHub-Slack integration to help tech teams reduce pull request time. Collaborate on pull requests like never before.
