JIRA and Crucible

Recently I've started using some new tools from Atlassian and they have some really cool features compared to others I've used so far.

JIRA is Atlassian's issue tracking system and these are some of the things I like about it:
1. A cool web-based UI













2. Plug-ins for IntelliJ IDEA that makes it so much easier to use
















3. Workflow customizable to any project











4. A customizable dashboard with project reports and statistics













5. Multi-dimensional reporting - reports can be read in a variety of dimensions, including pie chart, linear or column graphs, and statistical tables












It was first launched in 2003 and so is relatively new compared to Bugzilla and other similar tools

Crucible is Atlassian's code review tool. It is a lightweight, web-based tool that makes code review a breeze.
For someone used to various code review tools, this seems to be the best and all developers will love it.

These are some of the cool things about Crucible:
1. The team doesn't have to meet together in one place. Code revies can be completed asynchronusly
2. Sub-tasks or issues can be created out of code review comments
3. JIRA integration
4. Inline comments makes it so much more easier to track the review and provide feedback
5. The diff tool is very useful and pleasant to use
