Useability of Web based code repositories
- Abstract
-
This report examines the usability of existing web
based code repositories. I first define what a repository
is for, and then discuss the support that must
be provided to different types of repository users. I
identify a number of web based repositories, evaluate
their usability using the cognitive walkthrough
technique, and present the results of these evaluations.
I then suggest that usability can improved through
better interface design, automatic categorization,
and automatic asset submission. Finally, I present
my conclusions.
