Do you perform reviews on change sets?


David Clark (2341150) | asked Sep 01 '20, 4:28 p.m.

 I know the DNG review process is not available for change sets, but we review change sets prior to committing to the stream. Does anyone else perform reviews in this manner or do you deliver to the stream and then review the delivered content?

What is your best practice?
Thank you,

We did end up building an extension that enables peer reviews on change sets in DOORS NG - and we love it.

You can see what we did by downloading this file and opening it in your browser or watching a demo YouTube video.

It's basically an OpenSocial Gadget that makes Requirements reviews like a Code review in Git or EWM Code Reviews.

My project wants to review multiple change sets before delivery to the stream. I am just getting started on building an OpenSocial gadget that behaves similarly to the 'Tracked Changes' feature in MS Word where it can step you through the changes within a certain module. One desire we have is to review multiple change sets at once (say, all the change sets linked to one work item). I am getting nervous though that it will be complex for me to compute the changes for a single artifact if it was included in multiple of the change sets. And I keep wondering if we should just try to adapt the supported method of reviews on delivered content only.

 David --


My team and I deliver to the stream and review the delivered content.  We make sure to take a baseline, and create the review from the baseline that way the artifacts dont change in the review.  

To help my team and I know what state the artifacts are in we use the "state" attribute. We have states of "New",  "Working", "Submit for PR", "in Review", "Approved", and "Rejected".
