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.

Hello, Bitbucket Cloud Community! We are incredibly excited to announce the introduction of Iterative review, a feature designed to help your team get pull requests completed faster by removing the need to re-review code you've already seen. Now when an author pushes new commits based on your pull request (PR) feedback, you'll have the option to focus on just those new changes.

We recently gave you a preview of some exciting changes coming to Bitbucket Pipelines with the release of our next-generation CI/CD runtime. This new runtime will act as the foundation for a range of powerful new future capabilities like ARM and multi-arch builds in cloud, and we're excited to announce that this new runtime is available starting today.

The code insights functionality in Bitbucket Cloud provides a variety of reports, annotations, and metrics to help your team have full context during the code review process. With code insights, you can automatically have artifacts such as static analysis reports, security scan results, artifact links, unit test results, and build status updates appear in your pull request screen so reviewers have access to all reports and statuses before they approve the code change.

Here at Bitbucket Cloud, we are focused on helping you and your teams have the best possible experience for code review. That's why we continue to add features like batched comments, marking files as viewed, AI-assisted pull request descriptions – and coming very soon, iterative reviews. We also want to give you the best possible experience navigating a pull request, which is why we're proud to be introducing a brand-new layout for pull requests.

Understanding and interacting with code repositories can be frustrating: you often don't get all of the information you need to get your work done efficiently and effectively. Who owns the repository? What are its dependencies? Where do I ask for help about interacting with it? This lack of context around code, and the time it takes to find it somewhere in the bowels of your organization, slows everything down.

Bitbucket cloud is on a mission to become the world’s most extensible cloud SCM and CI/CD product, and we're thrilled to be able to share the next stage of that journey. Upcoming Webinar: Join us for a live-webinar on May 8th/9th, 2024 for a deep-dive into building your own Dynamic Pipelines. Today, we're announcing the release of a new capability in Bitbucket Cloud called Dynamic Pipelines.

Bitbucket Pipelines has seen amazing adoption over recent years, with millions of developers and teams using it to build better software every day. As part of our ongoing commitment to improving performance and reliability, we are in the process of making enhancements to our cloud infrastructure. These changes will also unlock a range of powerful new capabilities for customers that will turbocharge their CI/CD workloads and empower engineers to focus more of their energy on building great software.

As part of the graduation of custom merge checks from open-beta to general availability (GA) that is planned for late-April 2024, we're making a range of changes to several areas of the core Bitbucket Cloud workflow. This includes changes to the core pull request review and authoring experience, as well as changes to how merge checks are configured within a repository. Different changes will be relevant to different audiences, so feel free to use the navigation shortcuts below.

Today, modern software organizations’ requirements for DevOps tooling has become more sophisticated and bespoke. We hear from many customers that they are building large, complex systems to augment and extend their DevOps workflows in ways that don't work well with the tools they're using. This is why Bitbucket Cloud is on a mission to become the world's most extensible cloud SCM and CI/CD product.
