PR Summary

Adding a guard to SendModuleTelemetryMetric to avoid a NRE when accessing s_knownModules.

        internal static void SendModuleTelemetryMetric(TelemetryType telemetryType, string moduleName, string moduleVersion = AnonymousVersion)
        {
            if (!CanSendTelemetry)
            {
                return;
            }

            try

The same guard is present in SendTelemetryMetric a few lines below.

A callstack that triggers the NRE is

Microsoft.PowerShell.Telemetry.ApplicationInsightsTelemetry.GetModuleName(string moduleNameToValidate) Line 197	C#
Microsoft.PowerShell.Telemetry.ApplicationInsightsTelemetry.SendModuleTelemetryMetric(Microsoft.PowerShell.Telemetry.TelemetryType telemetryType, string moduleName, string moduleVersion) Line 143	C#
Microsoft.PowerShell.Commands.ImportModuleCommand.ImportModule_LocallyViaName_WithTelemetry(Microsoft.PowerShell.Commands.ModuleCmdletBase.ImportModuleOptions importModuleOptions, string name) Line 518	C#
Microsoft.PowerShell.Commands.ImportModuleCommand.ProcessRecord() Line 1262	C#

@pull-request-quantifier-deprecated

This PR has 2 quantified lines of changes. In general, a change size of upto 200 lines is ideal for the best PR experience!


Quantification details

Label      : Extra Small
Size       : +2 -0
Percentile : 0.8%

Total files changed: 1

Change summary by file extension:
.cs : +2 -0

Change counts above are quantified counts, based on the PullRequestQuantifier customizations.

Why proper sizing of changes matters

Optimal pull request sizes drive a better predictable PR flow as they strike a
balance between between PR complexity and PR review overhead. PRs within the
optimal size (typical small, or medium sized PRs) mean:

  • Fast and predictable releases to production:
    • Optimal size changes are more likely to be reviewed faster with fewer
      iterations.
    • Similarity in low PR complexity drives similar review times.
  • Review quality is likely higher as complexity is lower:
    • Bugs are more likely to be detected.
    • Code inconsistencies are more likely to be detected.
  • Knowledge sharing is improved within the participants:
    • Small portions can be assimilated better.
  • Better engineering practices are exercised:
    • Solving big problems by dividing them in well contained, smaller problems.
    • Exercising separation of concerns within the code changes.

What can I do to optimize my changes

  • Use the PullRequestQuantifier to quantify your PR accurately
    • Create a context profile for your repo using the context generator
    • Exclude files that are not necessary to be reviewed or do not increase the review complexity. Example: Autogenerated code, docs, project IDE setting files, binaries, etc. Check out the Excluded section from your prquantifier.yaml context profile.
    • Understand your typical change complexity, drive towards the desired complexity by adjusting the label mapping in your prquantifier.yaml context profile.
    • Only use the labels that matter to you, see context specification to customize your prquantifier.yaml context profile.
  • Change your engineering behaviors
    • For PRs that fall outside of the desired spectrum, review the details and check if:
      • Your PR could be split in smaller, self-contained PRs instead
      • Your PR only solves one particular issue. (For example, don't refactor and code new features in the same PR).

How to interpret the change counts in git diff output

  • One line was added: +1 -0
  • One line was deleted: +0 -1
  • One line was modified: +1 -1 (git diff doesn't know about modified, it will
    interpret that line like one addition plus one deletion)
  • Change percentiles: Change characteristics (addition, deletion, modification)
    of this PR in relation to all other PRs within the repository.
