SmartBear Software, the leader in software quality tools for the connected world, released the eBook, "10 Things Developers Wished their Bosses Understood about Code Review," providing helpful guidelines on how to successfully approach your boss when needing to implement a code review tool.

"We've interviewed several developers who have given us their best ideas on how to successfully approach your boss when it comes time to implement a code review tool."

The eBook outlines 1) how to effectively and efficiently approach your boss, 2) why setting up code review standards are critically important, 3) why code reviews are one of the best ways to improve your developers skills and 4) why code review processes attract top developers to your team.
