Atlassian Crucible (discontinued) vs. IBM Bob

Crucible is well suited for situations where development teams follow a branch-based merge process, where new features or automation stories are introduced. It allows more seasoned team members to check newer team members' code to ensure standards are followed. It is probably less appropriate for smaller development teams or smaller projects, where code reviews can be less formal.

Really good fit: - Getting started with IBM i development - Getting an overview of a process or program which you have never seen before - Teaching about general IBM i usage (but you have to ignore the edits of system values on the machine) Not good to use: - If you expect working and fully analyzed modernization projects - If you rely on the correctness of the code, because you don't understand the overall syntax of the language - Working with column based RPG II code - Working on very complex systems

• Fluency in COBOL RPG, and modernizing them into cloud ready frameworks. It compressed a 30 day migration down to 3 days
• "Plan mode" creates dependency maps and multi-page technical specification drafts. Helps eradicate research overhead. It outputs a 20+ page convert blueprint in minutes
• Generates end to end automated test suites and native browser validation. Helps extreme QA sprint efficiency without expanding headcount

• Crucible notifications of changes or updates to the code review are delayed as well as loading more source code is slow.
• Crucible is formatting could use improvements for viewing customization features. For instance, allowing the user to create a new tab per file to be reviewed would be nice to have.

• Would like to see more personalization capabilities. Bob does a good job reading code and adapting to a given style, but there should be more specific personalization settings.
• A more detailed understanding of how Bobcoins are spent would be welcome. This will help adapt to more efficient prompting.

IBM Bob functions well with its IDE. The interface is very versatile and configurable. But "out of the box" it is already very useful. And being able to specify which mode of operation it should use (ask, design, etc.) helps your focus and helps to tailor IBM Bob to the function you want it to perform, instead of having to write it all out in prompts.

Crucible was first on the market and the price is inexpensive. Crucible integrates with Jira Software and Atlassian Fisheye, providing the ability to track defects efficiently. SonarQube compares code to 'best standards' but not 'internal standards' and does not integrate to issue tracking. GitHub offers effective peer review, and has some integration with GitHub issues but costs more.

I selected IBM Bob primarily because of his training and the quality of the information he provides. Yo selecione IBM Bob principalmente por como fue entrenado y la calidad de la information que TE provee
