ViDI: The Visual Design Inspector
Yuriy Tymchuk, Andrea Mocci, Michele Lanza · 2015
We present ViDI (Visual Design Inspector), a novel code review tool which focuses on quality concerns and design inspection as its cornerstones. It leverages visualization techniques to represent the reviewed software and augments the visualization with the results of quality analysis tools. To effectively understand the contribution of a reviewer in terms of the impact of her changes on the overall system quality, ViDI supports the recording and further inspection of reviewing sessions. ViDI is an advanced prototype which we will soon release to the Pharo open-source community.
