Well I did say you still need to use your skills to check the bots code.
Unless you're checking every line and have a good enough and comprehensive enough understanding of the codebase to spot subtle bugs it will try to introduce that aren't caught by your tests, you're still opening yourself up to problems.
Your right and it is something that is part of the workflow. You really should only do this process on a language your are really familiar with so you know exactly how you would do it without the bots assistance.
