These are the requirements for Crucible and FishEye. See the FishEye requirements for more specific details, including hardware requirements.

Java Runtime

A JDK or JRE version 1.5 or greater.
You can download a Java Runtime for Windows/Linux/Solaris here.
On MacOSX the JVM is available as part of the OS install

Source code Repository

To run Crucible you need a FishEye compatible source code repository. Currently, CVS, Subversion and Perforce are supported.

Web Browser

Crucible has been tested in the latest releases of Firefox 2, Internet Explorer 7, and Safari 3.
Crucible is known to work with Internet Explorer 6, FireFox 3 Beta and Safari 2. It should work on any modern browser.

Font size

(Especially for Linux users.) For best results you may want to tweak your default monospace font and font-size. The default browser font is usually Courier New which can be hard to read in some browsers. We recommend choosing the same font you use in your IDE and selecting a font size approximately 2 points larger than your variable width font. Firefox 3, Internet Explorer 7 and Safari all have excellent font rendering. It is worth taking some time to tweak your fonts for the best experience.

Operating System

Crucible is a pure Java application and should run on any platform provided the above requirements are satisfied.

Known Limitations

All artifacts to be reviewed must be checked in to a source code management system supported by FishEye.
