Documentation for Crucible 2.8.x. Documentation for other versions is available too.

This page describes how to find and manage the Crucible reviews that relate to you.

On this page:

Deciding what needs to be reviewed

The 'Statement of Objective' is a brief description of what the review is intended to achieve. Crucible does not dictate how or what to review. It simply provides a mechanism to record comments.

Browse Your Reviews Under the 'Dashboard' Tab

When you first load Crucible, the 'Dashboard' screen will load, which shows your current reviews and other activity related to you.

Use the Crucible 'Dashboard' to manage your reviews. Read the overview on filtering your view.

Active reviews are listed on each reviewer's dashboard under the default 'To Review' filter. Reviews are listed under 'Out for Review' until all reviewers indicate they are complete. Then the reviews move to the 'To Summarize' list.

Read more about using the Dashboard tab.

Browse All Reviews Under the 'Reviews' Tab

All reviews that involve you in any role are listed when you click 'Open' or 'Closed' in the left navigation bar. For instance, use the 'My Reviews' --> 'Open' filter to locate a review that doesn't require further action from you, but is still under way.

If email notifications are enabled (see SMTP settings in the FishEye documentation), reviewers will receive an email with information about the review. Click the link within the email to go directly to the review.

When Files Change During a Review

If a file in the repository changes during a review, Crucible will visually alert you by showing the 'File Outdated' menu:

From the 'File Outdated' menu, you can choose to view the latest revision of the updated file, or add the latest revision to the review:
