_Crucible 101 Advanced

• When files in a review become outdated, Crucible informs you with the File Outdated Menu. You can then easily update the file with one click (Iterative Review).

• When adding files to a review, you can also review multiple revisions of a file.

You can create add-ons that generate custom reports and have it appear in the menu. For example, the 'Review Blockers' report that appears in the user interface is actually generated by an add-on to Crucible. You can use this add-on as a basis to create your own custom reports and add them to Crucible. See the Crucible developer documentation for more information on developing add-ons. Also see the Universal Plugin Manager documentation for general information on add-ons.

With its own API (Application Programming Interface), Crucible is extensible. If you need Crucible to do more than it ships with and you've got programming chops of your own, the API allows you to build extensions to the application to suit your needs.

See the API documentation for more.
