Code Review in Visual Studio
Most developers do not like to switch between their IDEs and other tools while working on a code.
Knowing this, we have
integrated the code review process into the development environment
as far as possible. You can now create review comments directly from the code editor.
The Code Review Board window displays created reviews and allows you
to manage them. What is more, Code Review Board contains all code-related discussions.
Another advantage is that Review Assistant can be installed without Visual Studio.
Flexible code reviews
Review Assistant lets you choose a simple or strict code review workflow for your projects.
Any developer can start post-commit code review on any set of revisions.
- Code author is automatically pulled from a repository.
- Multiple code authors can be assigned to a single review.
- Moderator role is available in the strict code review workflow.
- One review can contain code from multiple repositories.
- Unreviewed files are highlighted on Code Review Board.
Discussion in code
Code reviews are about improving your code base. Comments and discussions within your team are the heart
of the process. Review Assistant supports threaded comments, so team members can discuss
code without scheduled meetings.
- Add comments on specific source lines, blocks of code, files, or the entire review.
- Flag comments as defects that need to be fixed.
- Provide comments on binary files, such as images.
- Start discussions in code, without creating a formal code review.
- Unread comments and replies are highlighted.
Iterative review with defect fixing
Review Assistant supports multiple comment-fix-verify cycles in one review.
- Author can instantly see open comments in the code editor.
- Defect statuses are color-coded.
- Author can restart a review by adding revisions with fixes.
- A reviewer can see exact changes made by an author according to comments.
