Web Interface
In today’s mobile and wireless economy, professionals are no longer tied to their office desks. Whether it’s telecommuting during a snowstorm or working from the airport lounge during a fight delay, knowledge workers can stay connected independent of location – if they have the right software tools. Without the ability to connect securely to systems and applications at headquarters. mobile professionals suffer from loss of productivity, missed opportunities, and an inability to collaborate effectively. In the software development business, that can mean delayed projects, missed code review deadlines, lapses in following established processes.
The AccuRev Web Interface puts the power of AccuRev in the hands of remote and occasional users without sacrificing security or speed. Using today’s rich web client technology, the AccuRev Web Interface gives development managers the ability to easily browse the content of the AccuRev repository or workspaces for project status or perform code reviews from any location using a standard web browser. Team leads, release engineers or developers may create new development streams or download files and documents to work on while out of the office. Permalinks provide direct browser access to AccuRev-controlled elements in the repository, providing users the ability to remotely review file differences. These links also enhance third-party issue tracking, wiki and other collaboration systems by associating code changes with issues in change documents. The new simplified VersionBrowser interface shows only the Streams related to the current version by default, user can add additional Streams as desired.
