The ‘Kovair Gerrit Integration adapter’ allows the code review information to be accessed across the integrated tool chain connected via centralized Omnibus integration platform. Finally the updated code files are sent for merging in primary branch and subsequently initiates build. The build files are then deployed for Testing and Production completing the Continuous Integration cycle. So the manager gets a complete view of the changes happening without going into the SCM system.

OVERVIEW
Gerrit is an open source web based code review system, facilitating online
code reviews for projects using the Git version control system. Software
developers in a team can review each other's modifications on their source
code using a Web browser and approve or reject those changes. But
unless used in a connected ecosystem, Gerrit’s full potential can’t be
harnessed as status of code reviews cannot be shared in real-time with
other key project stakeholders e.g. QA, delivery managers and project
managers.

A SNEAK PEEK
Kovair Gerrit Integration Adapter connects Gerrit to
Omnibus and in turn to other ALM tools like Visual
Studio, Eclipse IDE. It allows working with code reviews
in an efficient manner, resulting in more time for
development which is what every developer wants. It
provides Continuous Integration environment where
project teams can access code review information,
initiate build and deployment for testing and
production pipelines, after approved changes are
merged with codebase in SCM repository.
BENEFITS & FEATURES
 Allows you to track changes in code files, view
comment on lines of code made by reviewer.
 Kovair Omnibus adapter tracks and captures
PatchSet from Gerrit, thus it provides immense
power to Kovair ALM users for capturing file
differences though a federated link.
 Allows Project Managers, Release Managers and
other key project stakeholders to view the status
of code review from other integrated tools and
plan future course of action.
SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS
 Operating Systems: Windows 2008 Server,
Windows 2008 Server R2 Server
 Databases:
SQL Server 2008 or Higher Version
 IIS: IIS 7.0 or Higher
 .Net Framework: 4.0 or Higher

USECASE SCENARIO FOR KOVAIR GERRIT INTEGRATION
In an integrated scenario, developers start working on client's requirement updated by the business analyst. Developers use Git
associated with Gerrit as a code repository tool. On completing development, the code is checked-in to the Gerrit system for code
review and verification. Any PatchSet from Gerrit with failed status can be delegated to create a defect in Defect management tool
like Jira. Once the development iterations are done automatic build and deployment can be initiated. Having Kovair DevOps in place
will facilitate automated testing at staging server through Jenkins Pipeline (or any other preferred tool). If all issues are fixed in staging
server, the approved code gets merged with the main codebase at the SCM repository and build is triggered. The build files are then
sent to production server for QA and Release. For all failures, the list of issues identified after review are sent back to the developers
for fix using the connected tools e.g. Jira for Defect Management and Jama for Requirement Management thereby identifying the
traceability.
