Pull requests are a core feature of Bitbucket Cloud, serving as the hub where code contributions are reviewed, discussed, and approved before being merged into the codebase. Initially, developers focused on ensuring that proposed changes were bug-free, adhered to correct code styling, and included appropriate tests. Over time, the role of pull requests has expanded to act as a checkpoint, ensuring that only high-quality and compliant code reaches production.

As part of our best practices Kelverion always recommends having a test automation platform. There are several reasons explained below why Kelverion recommends customers have a test environment.
