3. Check code style Don’t go down the rabbit hole

6. Two reviewers per commit You might miss something
7. Two reviewers per commit There can be no disagreements
8. Code review everything
9. Code review everything Composer configs, documents, templates,
 database changes, commit messages

11. Review the commit message
12. Review the commit message Fix typo
13. Review the commit message [MYCOOLAPP-1234] Fix typo in install docs I set the install.sh permissions to be 644, it was supposed to be 744. We want it to be executed by the user.
14. Double check the code
15. Double check the code if (in_array($input, $expected)) { $this->showRestrictedSecrets(); } else { $this->goAway(); }
16. Double check the code $expected = ['2', '4', '5', 'cake']; $input = 0; if (in_array($input, $expected)) { echo "I'm in!"; }
