PR Review: Add Pull Request Template

Todo List:

• Read and analyze the PR template file
• Evaluate template structure and completeness
• Check alignment with project needs and GitHub best practices
• Provide constructive feedback and recommendations

---

Overall Assessment: Excellent PR Template ✅

This is a well-structured and comprehensive PR template that will significantly improve the review process for Ragas. The template is thorough, practical, and aligns well with the project's development workflow.

✅ Strengths

1. Comprehensive Structure

• Covers all essential sections: issue linking, changes, testing, references, and checklist
• Well-organized with clear HTML comments providing guidance
• Good use of checkboxes for actionable items

2. Excellent Alignment with Project Commands

• Perfect integration with Makefile commands from CLAUDE.md:
  • make test for unit tests
  • make type for type checking
  • make format for linting
  • make test-e2e for end-to-end tests
• This shows deep understanding of the project's workflow

3. Thoughtful Change Categories

• Comprehensive type classification with emojis for visual clarity
• Covers all common change types (bug fixes, features, breaking changes, docs, maintenance, tests, performance)
• Non-breaking vs breaking changes are clearly distinguished

4. Strong Testing Focus

• Separate sections for automated and manual testing
• Explicit coverage of the full testing pipeline
• Encourages both test creation and verification

5. User-Friendly Design

• Clear instructions in HTML comments
• Professional but welcoming tone in footer
• Good balance of required vs optional information

🔧 Minor Suggestions for Enhancement

1. Issue Link Formatting (.github/pull_request_template.md:5)

- Fixes #[issue_number]

Consider making this more explicit:

- Fixes #<issue_number> (replace with actual issue number)

2. Add Performance/Security Considerations (.github/pull_request_template.md:24)
For an ML evaluation toolkit, consider adding:

## Performance & Security
- [ ] Performance impact assessed (if applicable)
- [ ] Security implications considered (especially for LLM integrations)
- [ ] Resource usage implications documented

3. Consider Breaking Change Documentation (.github/pull_request_template.md:18)
Since Ragas is a library with API consumers, consider expanding:

- [ ] 💥 Breaking change (fix or feature that would cause existing functionality to not work as expected)
  - [ ] Migration guide added/updated
  - [ ] Deprecation warnings added (if applicable)

🎯 Code Quality Assessment

• Structure: Excellent organization and flow
• Maintainability: Easy to modify and extend
• Usability: Clear instructions and intuitive layout
• Completeness: Covers all necessary aspects of PR submission
• Security: No security concerns (static template file)
• Performance: N/A for template files

📋 Test Coverage Assessment

This is a template file that doesn't require traditional unit tests, but the template itself:

• ✅ Mandates test coverage through checklist items
• ✅ References all project testing commands correctly
• ✅ Encourages comprehensive testing practices

🚀 Recommendation

Approve and merge - This PR template is ready for production use. The suggestions above are minor enhancements that could be addressed in future iterations if needed.

The template will significantly improve PR quality by:

• Ensuring consistent information from contributors
• Reducing back-and-forth during reviews
• Encouraging best practices (testing, documentation, self-review)
• Aligning perfectly with the project's established development workflow
