# PR Approver Preparation Checklist

Certain federal engineers can get approval to review their team's code and bypass a Platform PR review. Use this checklist to ensure you are prepared to become a PR approver for your team's code.

**Engineer Name:**

**Team Name & [GitHub Team](https://github.com/orgs/department-of-veterans-affairs/teams):**
<!-- Name of your team and code-owning GitHub team(s) -->

## Training

- [ ] Thoroughly review the [Code review guide for vets-api](https://vfs.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/BCP/pages/3155394563/Code+review+guide+for+vets-api).
- [ ] Review and save this [PR tips page](https://vfs.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/BCP/pages/3918135327/PR+tips+for+federal+engineers) for details once you start reviewing and merging PRs.
- [ ] I understand I am responsible for the code my team deploys.

## Tools and Access

- [ ] I have access to the necessary repositories.
- [ ] I have the required permissions to approve and merge PRs within the repository my team works in.
- [ ] I can view a list of open PRs needing my approval. Here's an [example query](https://github.com/pulls?q=is%3Apr+is%3Aopen+draft%3Afalse+NOT+WIP+in%3Atitle+team-review-requested%3Adepartment-of-veterans-affairs%2Fbackend-review-group). Replace `backend-review-group` with your code-owning GitHub Team and modify the query as needed ([GH search docs](https://docs.github.com/en/search-github/searching-on-github/searching-issues-and-pull-requests)).

## Communication and Collaboration

- [ ] Meet with the Community of Practice (CoP). Reach out in the CoP Slack channel for a CoP meeting invite.
- [ ] I have discussed my role as a PR approver with my team.
- [ ] I understand I can reach out in the CoP Slack channel with PR questions.

I wonder if we shouldn't same something like Approved by OCTO Leadership or something like that. I could see Bill being one of the main approvers but most likely not the only one?

Or, maybe leave as is for now and we can see how it flows and adjust later if we believe it needs it.
