What does Unreviewed PRs measure?

Unreviewed PRs tells you what percentage of your PRs don’t get reviewed.

In an ideal world, PRs aren’t merged without being reviewed. Even if they’re small or made by senior developers, they can be a huge source of bugs for you.

If you don’t have a policy in place to make sure PRs get reviewed, every time a PR is merged without review, a manager should know about it.

You should drive this number toward zero and be aware of the rare instance when a developer feels the need to drive code straight from their laptop to production without getting it reviewed.
