We are excited to announce the support for Atlassian Bitbucket Cloud repositories to AWS CodeGuru Reviewer. Built for professional teams, Bitbucket is more than just Git code management. Bitbucket gives teams one place to plan projects, collaborate on code, test, and deploy.

It helps you find the most expensive lines of code that hurt application performance, then gives you specific recommendations to fix or improve your code. By integrating Atlassian Bitbucket with Amazon Code Guru, development teams benefit from tools that enable them to improve coding standards in the software development process. Further, with this integration, Amazon CodeGuru Reviewer can now scan your pull requests and give you recommendations against your source code in Bitbucket, together with a description of what’s causing the issue and how to remediate it.
