Bots in Software Engineering are becoming progressively inevitable because they allow us to automate and perform repetitive and pre-defined tasks.
They can be judged in terms of autonomy, intelligence, interactivity, environment and objective. They can help the development teams with coding, testing, respecting the DevOps philosophy, supporting, documenting and collaborating.
These bots allow developers to enhance their efficiency and effectiveness.
The bots we used and described during this project are mostly bots helping with coding, collaboration and DevOps. We used Dependabot, Renovabot, Repairnator and ImgBot (a special bot that optimizes images).

- The bots are very useful and help us a lot in our daily work.
- The ease of use of the bots is very good. Just add the bot to your repository and it will do the rest. If you want to configure it, you can do it easily.
- The bots are very useful for the DevOps philosophy. They help us to automate and to respect the DevOps philosophy.
- It helps mostly with repetitive tasks. Or on things that depend on the environment (like the dependencies for example).
