Thank you for opening a Pull Request! Before submitting your PR, there are a few things you can do to make sure it goes smoothly:
- [ ] Make sure to open an issue as a [bug/issue](https://github.com/googleapis/java-bigquerystorage/issues/new/choose) before writing your code!  That way we can discuss the change, evaluate designs, and agree on the general idea
- [ ] Ensure the tests and linter pass
- [ ] Code coverage does not decrease (if any source code was changed)
- [ ] Appropriate docs were updated (if necessary)
