Review policy decides whether a project pull request needs reviewer approval before Serpent can merge it. It applies immediately to every open pull request when you change it.
Set it in the demo
Open Project Settings Review Policy with the "Try it in the demo" button above, then:
-
Pick a review process
Choose Enforced, Optional - per work item, or No review.
-
Save the policy
Click Save policy. The new level applies to every open pull request right away.
The three levels
- Enforced - every pull request requires reviewer approval before Serpent can merge it. Recommended.
- Optional - per work item - new Work Items can require code review; other pull requests require it only when reviewers are assigned.
- No review - Serpent does not require approval before merging.
UAT approval is configured separately on each Work Item, independent of this policy.
