Hi since Brian Walt Solutions Architect at gate lab today, I'm going to walk through one of get labs newest features that shipped with our 12 that'll release. Visual reviews. Visual reviews is a feature built on top of our existing review. App functionality, that's built into Dell app review ups, are automatically create environments that are standalone isolated instance of your application, built from the code.

That's represented inside of the merge request that you're working on visual review takes that one step further by enabling your teams to annotate on top of the application and seamlessly provide feedback to the merge request. Let's take a look.

This is my existing application as it stands in the live environment and web production server. It's a simple node.js application, single page app. Let's show some of the videos for training of gitlab.

If we jump into the code for the project now, we can then go to our issues. Tab here where I have a pre created issue for some of the font headers to be updated to the primary app colors. You quickly click into this and take a look. What we're trying to do here. So it looks like alls we're trying to do is update the dashboard color from this gray to our primary brand. Colors I see that there's already been an app someone. Who's already worked on this here.

If I click into the merge request, I can take a look at what's been done.

If I scroll down I can see a code review of all the changes that have been part of this particular code change looks like some of the headers have been updated with the classes there. But what we're visual review comes into play is that, if I scroll over to where we have our review app being spun up, I can get a link directly to my application here.

If I click this button, next to it called review, it'll open up the application provide me some information on how to get this set up for the first time, which I've already done before this demo open up the application and you'll see as part of my in ephemeral, review application. I now have this box down here in the corner and no matter what page that I go on to I can see that the box still persists. So, if I'm doing a review, I can say look.

I can see that this color has changed to the purple, which is our primary color. So everything looks good. I can make a comment here and says. Dashboard page looks good here, send my feedback back to Gil AB you'll notice that it gives me a link and I can go view that comment back on the merge request or I can continue with my review now. I clicked into the lessons page I noticed that this is a updated, the colors, but the contents mission, so I can have a comment here. Saying content.

It's missing is this part of the change sending that feedback back to get lab? Now, if I go back to that merge request, I can see that all of my comments that I had made using the visual review app are showing up in the discussion section of my merge request. Not only my comments, but also provide some additional metadata that we gather behind the scenes about your browser and your machine and resolution, so that can send that information back so that help debug particular issues that are related to what you're commenting on and from there.

You can use get labs threaded, commenting system on the merge request to continue the conversation there and so that wraps up our demo of the first iteration of get labs new visual review feature. We have lots of new features planned for this in upcoming releases. You can follow along in the epic 960 here to see. What's coming thanks for listening in.
