> Mentoring is mostly outside of a code review Strongly disagree, at least for remote teams. Working remotely, I've personally found code reviews to be a great way of mentoring less experienced team members. I also encourage junior team members to review code of more experienced team members. For big changes, we discuss proposal/API/code reviews as a team. I've had several people provide feedback that they've learned a lot from reviews like this, and honestly I wish I'd had this kind of mentoring when I started out (I was basically a one-man cowboy-coder for the first 5 years or so of my career). I know mentoring can be seen as a chore for many, but it can be seriously rewarding too!
