Once you have set up your Crucible server as an Eclipse task repository, you can create a Crucible review without leaving Eclipse. The Atlassian Connector for Eclipse allows you to create post-commit reviews, as described below, and also patch reviews, as described in another topic.

A post-commit review allows you to ask your colleagues to review changesets that have already been committed to your source repository.

To create a post-commit review,

  1. If you have not already set up a task repository for your Crucible server, please do so by following the steps in the configuration guide
  2. Open your Eclipse 'Task Repositories' view and find the task repository that you defined for your Crucible server:
    • In the Eclipse toolbar, select 'Window', 'Show View', 'Other'.
    • The 'Show View' popup window appears. Open the 'Tasks' folder and click 'Task Repositories'.
    • The 'Task Repositories' view appears, as shown in diagram 1 below. (If you have trouble finding the 'Task Repositories' view, try the full instructions with screenshots.)
  3. Right-click the task repository that you defined for your Crucible server and select 'New Task'.
  4. The 'New Crucible Review' window appears, as shown in diagram 1 below. Select 'From a Changeset' and click 'Next'.
  5. The 'New Crucible Review' window now shows recent changesets from your repository, as shown in screenshot 2 below. Select one or more changesets from the list on the left. (Hold down the Ctrl key to select more than one changeset at once.)
  6. Click 'Add' to move the selected changeset(s) into the box on the right.
  7. If prompted, click the 'Edit' button to map your local repository to the repository on your Crucible server.
  8. Click 'Next'.
  9. The 'New Crucible Review' window now prompts you for the review title and other details, as shown in screenshot 3 below. Enter the details and click 'Finish'.
