PR Code Suggestions ✨

Category	Suggestion	Score
Enhancement	Update multiple dependencies to their latest compatible versions Consider updating other dependencies to their latest compatible versions as well, to ensure all packages are up-to-date and working together smoothly. packages/web-component-tester/package.json [65-68] "express": "^4.20.0", +"chalk": "^4.1.2", +"glob": "^8.0.3", +"lodash": "^4.17.21", Apply this suggestion Suggestion importance[1-10]: 5 Why: The suggestion to update other dependencies is reasonable for maintaining up-to-date packages, which can improve security and compatibility. However, it is not crucial and does not address a specific issue in the current PR, which focuses on updating the 'express' dependency. Therefore, it receives a moderate score. The 'existing_code' field is valid, but the 'improved_code' section suggests changes not present in the PR diff.	5

✨ CI feedback usage guide:

---

The CI feedback tool (/checks) automatically triggers when a PR has a failed check.
The tool analyzes the failed checks and provides several feedbacks:

• Failed stage
• Failed test name
• Failure summary
• Relevant error logs

In addition to being automatically triggered, the tool can also be invoked manually by commenting on a PR:

/checks "https://github.com/{repo_name}/actions/runs/{run_number}/job/{job_number}"

where {repo_name} is the name of the repository, {run_number} is the run number of the failed check, and {job_number} is the job number of the failed check.

Configuration options

• enable_auto_checks_feedback - if set to true, the tool will automatically provide feedback when a check is failed. Default is true.
• excluded_checks_list - a list of checks to exclude from the feedback, for example: ["check1", "check2"]. Default is an empty list.
• enable_help_text - if set to true, the tool will provide a help message with the feedback. Default is true.
• persistent_comment - if set to true, the tool will overwrite a previous checks comment with the new feedback. Default is true.
• final_update_message - if persistent_comment is true and updating a previous checks message, the tool will also create a new message: "Persistent checks updated to latest commit". Default is true.

See more information about the checks tool in the docs.
