We have finally finished out project CodeSeeker.
This project's aim is to help developers to share their knowledge.
This is a tool in which a developer can see their changes with repository in a very cool user interface (not the simple eclipse subversion) and can allow others to see the same changes, and even comment their changes to make it a better work before it gets committed or pushed to repository!!!.
Known facilities for Team Code Review:
* If you are a developer:
- You can improve your habilities by being reviewed by your team mates and learn new things.
- You can learn business rules by reviewing your team mates work.
- You can be reviewed by your team mates and avoid making critical mistakes to the current project.
* If you are a team leader:
- You can verify if your team are developing software under the standards required by the project.
- You can comment on the work your team have done to encourage them or tell them about any mistake.
- You can be well-known about what code is going to be comitted before it gets to main repository.
