White Paper: Lightweight Tool Support For Effective Code Review

May 30, 2007

Every programmer has had the experience of struggling to find a small but elusive bug. No matter how much you study the code, you simply can’t see it. So you ask a colleague to come look over your shoulder. As you explain the problem you’re trying to solve, one of two things happens. Either you spot the problem yourself while explaining it, or after you describe the problem, your colleague immediately finds the likely cause. We need to get a little help from our friends through the simple technique called peer review. In this free white paper, Karl Wiegers discusses using a lightweight tool to support implementing reviews in your team. Download the PDF

Threaded Comments with Metrics

At the heart of a Crucible review are comments. You can comment at the review, file or line level. Comments can be marked as “defects” and metrics can be recorded. You can reply to other peoples comments and save your thoughts as drafts.

Inline threaded comments

Pretty Source

Enhanced diffs (partial line changes) with context, keyword expansion and white space control. Syntax highlighted full source. (Side by side diffs are planned post 1.0.)

Workflow & Notification

Crucible reviews move through simple states Draft > [Approval >] Review > Summarize > Closed so you know where you are up to. Crucible has three roles, Author, Moderator, and Reviewer which have different responsibilities as the review progresses (custom workflow is planned post 1.0). Each user can choose how much they want Crucible to inform them by email. RSS feeds are coming soon (pre 1.0).
