Code Review

This release of Rhythm introduces native Code Review functionality directly from within Rhythm. Code Review enables you to:

  • Understand code changes in context of defined Stories and Tasks.
  • Find bugs early in the cycle before they reach production code.
  • Keep code clean by supporting your team's coding standards.
  • Review code changes from multiple SCM repositories from within a single Rhythm Story/Task.
  • Compare differences in-line or side-by-side in a modern editor
  • Quickly find historic code changes related to previously delivered Stories and Tasks.
  • Keep team members up-to-date on changes in the code and ensure that the team is in agreement with changes.
  • Organize and route reviews to specific reviewers.
  • Have line-by-line discussions with mark-down notation.

In addition to assigning Reviewers/Watchers and adding/remove Change sets, the Code Review window provides a file navigator allowing you to select any file in the change set and see the differences between the files:

You and your team can then perform full discussions, reviews, approval/rejection cycles within a Code Review:
