Team Collaboration for Code Review › Review and Add Comments

Review and Add Comments

As a reviewer, you review and add comments on all the versions that your assigned review request includes. After you review the versions, you can vote on the review request.

Note: Version comparisons in the editor for adding in-line comments use the Eclipse-based built-in diff tool.

Follow these steps:

1. Click the Assigned Reviews tab of the Peer Review view.

   A list of your assigned review requests appears under the project node.

2. Expand the Review Request node and double-click the version you want to review.

   The Review Comments Editor appears with a comparison of the version under review and the parent version. Highlighted text indicates changed lines for you to review.

3. Add a comment for a changed line:
   1. Go to the changed line and double-click the leftmost ruler.

      The Comments at Line Number dialog appears.

   2. Add the comment text in the lower text area, and click the plus sign.
   3. (Optional) Add an attachment for a changed line by clicking the paper clip symbol.

      A browser opens that lets you locate and select an attachment.

4. Repeat Steps 2 and 3 for each changed line.
5. Close the Comments at Line Number dialog after you add all your comments, and click OK when prompted.

   All comments are listed under the version object.

6. (Optional) Mark your progress.
7. (Optional) Reopen the review session by double-clicking a comment or attachment in the list.

   The Review Comments Editor appears.
