Reviewbin: uma ferramenta de fácil uso para revisão de código.

Abstract

Code review is one of the most important steps in the software development process. The practice allows for better quality and reliability of the artifacts, as they will be analyzed and discussed by other developers. Nowadays, some tools enable this process, such as GitHub and ReviewBoard, however, these tools are integrated into a Version Control System (VCS), for instance, Git and Subversion, making it impossible for people who do not know these technologies, such as students beginning in programming courses. There are also tools, like Codepost.io, which present themselves as a proprietary solution for code review in the classroom, but they are limited to correcting activities and add an extra complexity for setting up classes and creating activities on the platform. The objective of this work is to create a tool focused on code review, which allows students and teachers to enjoy the benefits of this practice in classroom activities, without the need of knowing any VCS technology and also be free for other use cases, like sending a code snippet so that someone can take a question, without the need for extra configurations.
