Query to find comment rate on PRs

[Tom Halliley]

To get a sense for how much reviewers are commenting on PRs (vs. Approving without reading code), I'd like to be able to query such data.  Is there a way to do this?

Hi Tom,

You can use the Contributions report which is provided by the Awesome Graphs add-on:

It helps you understand:

• What developers create high quality code and who might need to improve their approach to work. E.g. when an engineer has less tasks, comments and needs work flags in their pull requests, it suggests his work is approved as it is or with minor changes and he creates code of high quality.
• What reviewers are thorough when they review the work of developers. E.g. diligent reviewers come up with suggestions and improvements, so they have more tasks and comments than others.
• How the dynamics of code review changes over time. E.g. you can see if the number of pull requests with Needs work flags is getting bigger or smaller, if the number of tasks in pull requests is increasing or decreasing over time.
