7 risk factors, research-validated

Every factor is backed by incident post-mortems and deployment failure research. Not guesswork — data.

01

Test Coverage

Files modified with low test coverage significantly increase deployment risk. Koalr integrates with Codecov and SonarCloud to pull real coverage percentages per file.

02

CODEOWNERS Compliance

If a PR modifies files owned by a team that has not reviewed it, the risk score increases substantially. Koalr syncs CODEOWNERS daily and validates against PR reviewers.

03

File Churn Rate

Files that change frequently are more error-prone. Koalr tracks 30-day churn rates per file and weights high-churn files more heavily in the risk calculation.

04

Author Experience

How familiar is the PR author with the files they changed? Koalr tracks commit history per author per file to estimate expertise. First-time changes to critical paths score higher risk.

05

PR Size

Large PRs are harder to review thoroughly and more likely to contain bugs. PRs over 500 lines changed receive a risk penalty. Over 1,000 lines receives maximum penalty.

06

Deploy Timing

Deployments on Fridays, late afternoons, and during on-call low-staffing windows carry higher rollback risk. Koalr factors in time-of-day and day-of-week patterns.

07

Historical Failure Rate

Services with recent deployment failures, high MTTR, or frequent rollbacks receive elevated baseline risk. Koalr tracks per-service deployment health over the last 90 days.
