Quality Assurance Process

Code Review Checklist Integration

Every submission must pass:

Automated Checks (Pre-Review)

• .\verify-build.bat passes
• NT8 compilation test passes (for wrappers)
• Unit tests achieve >80% coverage
• No C# 6+ syntax detected
• No .NET Core dependencies detected

Human Review (Post-Automated)

• Follows established code patterns
• Proper error handling implemented
• Integration points correctly implemented
• Documentation adequate
• Performance acceptable

Escalation Matrix

Green Zone (Normal Operations)

• Build success >98%
• Quality score >90%
• All tests passing
• Action: Continue normal operations

Yellow Zone (Caution)

• Build success 95-98%
• Quality score 85-90%
• <5% test failures
• Action: Daily quality review, additional training

Red Zone (Immediate Action Required)

• Build success <95%
• Quality score <85%

• 5% test failures

• Action: Stop new development, focus on fixing issues
