2.9 Monitoring Project Status

ClearCase provides several tools to help you track the progress of your project:

• The UCM-ClearQuest integration includes six ClearQuest queries, which you can use to retrieve information about activities in your project. For example, you can see all activities that are in an active state or all active activities assigned to a particular developer. In addition, you can create customized ClearQuest queries.

• The Compare Baselines GUI compares any two baselines of a component and displays the differences in activities and versions associated with each baseline. You can use this feature to determine when a particular feature was included in a baseline.

• The Component Tree Browser displays the baseline history of a component. The GUI includes a feature that lets you filter the display so that you see only specified streams or baselines at or above a specified promotion level.

• The ClearCase Report Builder and Report Viewer let you generate and view reports specific to your project environment. The Report Builder provides a set of reports organized by ClearCase object, such as project, stream, element, and view. In addition, you can customize the procedures used to generate and display reports.
