Filter BOT/AI Pull Request Reviews

[samad-yar-khan]

Why do we need this ?

• We currently include Bot/AI reviewers while considering first response time. This decreases the actual First Response time of the PR due to instant bots reveiws.

Acceptance Criteria

• Identify Reviews by AI/Bots
• While calculating Pull Request Cycle Time metrics (first response time and overall cycle time) exclude Bot/AI reviews.

Hi @samad-yar-khan Hope you are well:)
For identifying bots, a new field called actor_type (which indicates either "bot" or "user") should be added to the PullRequestEvent model.
How will we know whether the review is from a bot or not?
For GitHub, we can leverage the github.PullRequest.get_reviews() API, where each review's user object also includes a type indicating whether it is a bot or a user. So, just after this line, we will retrieve the actor type as:

actor_type=actor.get("type", "")

Then, we add it to the PullRequestEvent.

I'm not sure how GitLab processes this, but the second part will be the same for both platforms:

The second part is straightforward: simply filter out bot events before any operation in this method. At the beginning of the function, the code will look like:

pr_events = [
            e
            for e in pr_events
            if not e.actor_type.lower() == "bot" 
        ]
