Agile Review

Barkeep

Barkeep is a code review system developed in Ruby by the company Ooyala <ref> GitHub "Comparing barkeep to other code review tools" </ref>. Although written in Ruby Barkeep is not language specific and may be used for code review of any language. Barkeep is standalone and the end user is responsible for hosting it. One of the key features that Barkeep prides itself on is it hackable nature. Since Barkeep is hosted by the user and they provide their “small codebase” it allows users to add on new features and make modifications as they see fit for their needs. So even if Barkeep doesn’t have a feature someone needs it very possible for the user to add it.
