PR Metrics is a both a GitHub Action and Azure DevOps Pipelines task for adding size and test coverage indicators to the start of each Pull Request title.

The Azure Pipelines task can be downloaded from the Visual Studio Marketplace.

For example, a PR with the title "Adding code" could become either:

• XS:heavy_check_mark: :black_small_square: Adding code
• L:warning: :black_small_square: Adding code

The former would indicate an extra small PR with sufficient test coverage, whereas the latter would indicate a large PR with insufficient test coverage.

This task helps ensure engineers keep PRs to an appropriate size with appropriate test coverage, while informing reviewers of the expected time commitment for a thorough review of the code.

The task will also add a comment to the PR with a detailed breakdown of the metrics:

Metrics for iteration 1 ✔️ Thanks for keeping your pull request small.

✔️ Thanks for adding tests.

	Lines
Product Code	100
Test Code	50
Subtotal	150
Ignored	5
Total	155

It will furthermore add a comment to indicate that review of specific excluded files is unnecessary.

❗ This file doesn't require review.

If no PR description is provided, the description will be set to:

❌ Add a description.

You will need to set the environment variable PR_Metrics_Access_Token to a Personal Access Token (PAT) with at least the 'repos' scope. Instructions on creating a new PAT can be found here. Alternatively, you can use the in-built GITHUB_TOKEN.

It is also recommended that you set continue-on-error: true as a failure within the action should not break your pipelines and prevent code development.

The maximum number of new lines in a small PR. If left blank, a default of 200 will be used.

The growth rate applied to the base size for calculating the size of larger PRs. If left blank, a default of 2.0 will be used. With a base size of 200 and a growth rate of 2.0, 400 new lines would constitute a medium PR while 800 new lines would constitute a large PR.

The lines of test code expected for each line of product code. If left blank, a default of 1.0 will be used. This can be set to 0.0 in order to skip the reporting of the test code coverage.

Globs specifying the files and folders to include. Autogenerated files should typically be excluded. Excluded files will contain a comment to inform reviewers that they are unlikely to need to review those files. If left blank, a default of

**/*
!**/package-lock.json

(all files except package-lock.json) will be used.

Extensions for files containing code, so that non-code files can be excluded. If left blank, a default set of file extensions will be used, which are listed here.

The default input values are expected to be appropriate for most builds. Therefore, the following YAML definition is recommended:

uses: microsoft/[email protected]
name: PR Metrics
env:
  PR_METRICS_ACCESS_TOKEN: ${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }}
continue-on-error: true

If you wish to modify the inputs, YAML akin the to the following can be used:

uses: microsoft/[email protected]
name: PR Metrics
env:
  PR_METRICS_ACCESS_TOKEN: ${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }}
with:
  base-size: 200
  growth-rate: 2.0
  test-factor: 1.0
  file-matching-patterns: |
    **/*
    !Ignore.cs
  code-file-extensions: |
    cs
    ps1
continue-on-error: true
