Today, we’re releasing what we expect to be the final pre-release of Review Board 5.0.
Review Board 5.0 features:
- Single Sign-On using SAML
- Elasticsearch 1.x-7.x support
- Trojan source code detection
- Stronger API tokens, with expiration, invalidation, last usage tracking, and secret scanning
- Stale Ship It! indicators in the Dashboard
- New APIs for querying comments and reviews across all review requests
- Built on top of Django 3.2, supporting Python 3.7-3.11, bringing better performance, bug/security fixes, and new extension capabilities
This release candidate introduces:
- Better Ship It! indicators in the Dashboard, showing if new updates have been made since the last Ship It!
- New controls for setting the expiration dates of API tokens
- Several bug fixes
We expect to release the final 5.0 within weeks.
