Azure OpenAI GPT model to review Pull Requests for Azure DevOps
In recent months, the use of Generative Pre-trained Transformer (GPT) models for natural language processing (NLP) has gained significant traction. GPT models, which are based on the Transformer architecture, can generate text from arbitrary sources of input data and can be trained to identify errors and detect anomalies in text. As such, GPT models are increasingly being used for a variety of applications, ranging from natural language understanding to text summarization and question-answering. In the software development world, developers use pull requests to submit proposed changes to a codebase. However, reviews by other developers can sometimes take a long time and not accurate, and in some cases, these reviews can introduce new bugs and issues. In order to reduce this risk, During my research I found the integration of GPT models is possible and we can add Azure OpenAI service as pull request reviewers for Azure Pipelines service. The GPT models are trained on developer codebases and are able to detect potential coding issues such as typos, syntax errors, style inconsistencies and code smells. In addition, they can also assess code structure and suggest improvements to the overall code quality. Once the GPT models have been trained, they can be integrated into the Azure Pipelines service so that they can automatically review pull requests and provide feedback. This helps to reduce the time taken for code reviews, as well as reduce the likelihood of introducing bugs and issues.
