Teamscale Integration in Developer Collaboration Suites
Oct 16, 2018 12:00 am | Alexander von Rhein
Many software development projects use online tools for collaboration between developers.
For example, developers use GitLab, GitHub, Jira, and Gerrit for asynchronous discussions about code, for reviewing features before accepting them into the »main« branch, and for executing automated tests.
Usually, the impact of a feature on code maintainablility is not easily visible in such tools (it is hard to judge this from a simple code diff).
Some newly introuced maintainability flaws such as new architecture violations or code that is cloned from non-changed existing code are impossible to recognize when seeing only the changed code.
Even if a Teamscale instance exists that contains findings on code quality, opening it is an effort that is often skipped by reviewers.
In this blog post, I illustrate how Teamscale results can be integrated easily in existing online-collaboration tools.
This helps to make existing code-review processes more thorough and efficient. |
