Abstract
Code review is a critical but time-consuming process for ensuring code quality in modern software engineering. To alleviate the effort of reviewing source code, recent studies have investigated the possibility of automating the review process. Moreover, tools based on large language models such as ChatGPT are playing an increasingly important role in this vision. Understanding how these tools are used during code review can provide valuable insights for code review automation.
