reviewbotextension 4.0

Review Bot is a tool for automating tasks on code uploaded to Review
Board, and posting the results as a code review. Review Bot was built to
automate the execution of static analysis tools.
The Review Bot extension integrates Review Board with one or more
Review Bot workers. It manages the configuration rules which tell Review
Bot when and how to review code, and schedules new review requests for review.

Supported Code Checking Tools
The Review Bot extension can perform automated code reviews using any of the
following tools:

checkstyle
- A static analysis tool that provides a variety of checkers for Java code
Cppcheck
- A static analysis tool for C/C++ code
CppLint
- Checks C++ code against Google’s style guide
flake8
- A wrapper around several Python code quality tools
PMD

pycodestyle
- A code style checker for Python code
