Code review
From DocForge
A code review is a process where a developer will "walk through" their code and explain what they did, and (if necessary) why they did it.
This process can be done one on one with senior software developer, or in a group environment.
This is the phase where peer mentoring can come into play, as developers are able to share thoughts on how the code was written, and learn from it. The code review should not be viewed as a "code ripping" exercise, but as an oportunity to learn from others and improve the general product.
This is an excellent place to ensure coding standards and practices are being enforced (i.e. your company may require a specific date format in code, or a specific style of comments be used).
