Depending  on your import settings, your code review tasks may be imported automatically when you import your quality tasks (as described in Importing Results into the UI).

You can always import your assigned code review tasks into the Quality Tasks view by choosing Parasoft> Import> [desired_import_option] or clicking the Import My Recommended Tasks toolbar button. If you choose to import a custom set of tasks, be sure to enable the Code Review option.

 


Understanding Task Status Indicators

Depending on how you configure the code review tasks tree, each code review task may be marked with a status indicator, as well as the name of the file, the revision version number, and the time when the latest revision  was committed into the source control. 


 


 


The following table describes the various status indicators used:

...

For example, a reviewer with the following task might choose Compare with Previous  


 


review the code change in the compare editor 


 


then add an issue in the Code Review Issue area.

...

For instance, the following screenshot shows one possible configuration for Code Review: 


 


This was configured by a developer trying to group items in a way that lets him to look at things by developer, then by task, and then by location in the code.  That’s how his brain breaks down the information, so that’s how we wanted it presented. More specifically:

Another developer who wants to focus on 1) what code reviews to address first and 2) what each code modification was designed to achieve might have the following layout: 


 


This layout shows the "Task Type" and the "Task or Comment." The "Task Type" sorts the check-ins by date, allowing the reviewer to see which code review to look at first. The "Task or Comment" shows him the intent of the check-in by including the author's comment.

...

To fine-tune what data is displayed in the various tree nodes that you choose to display, you can use the Preferences panel’s Code Review controls to configure which labels are displayed. 


Filters

Additionally, you can filter the content shown by clicking the Filter  button in the Quality Tasks view  


 


then specifying the desired filter conditions.
