Use the Crucible 'Dashboard' to manage your reviews. Read the overview on managing your reviews.
Active reviews are listed on each reviewer's dashboard under the default 'To Review' filter. For authors and moderators, reviews are listed under 'Out for Review' until all reviewers indicate they are complete. Then the reviews move to the 'To Summarize' list of the moderator.
Your Open and Closed Reviews
All reviews that involve you in any role are listed under 'Open' or 'Closed' in the 'My Reviews' filters. 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 mailing is 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.
Deciding what needs to be reviewed
Crucible does not dictate how or what to review. It simply provides a mechanism to record comments. When asked to perform a review, you might like to read the 'Statement of Objective' by clicking the + sign under the review title to determine in more detail what the moderator requires you to review.
If a file in the repository changes during a review, Crucible will visually alert you by showing a small red square next to the name of the file under review.

You can hover your mouse cursor over the file name or the square red icon to quickly see the revision number of the updated file.

If you click the name of the file, the details will expand and a new hyperlink will appear below, called 'view diff to latest'. You can click that link to view diffs against the newer file.
