Comparing changes
Comparing changes in application elements allows you to quickly check differences between two versions of the same component or between two exported elements. Thanks to this you can:
analyze changes introduced by the team,
verify dependency consistency,
prepare components for migration or deployment.
These functionalities are available in the Difference and Compare artifacts, located in the Overview in Eximee Designer.
Tab Difference – comparison of versions of the same element
Allows you to compare two versions of the same application element, e.g. a form, script, or composite component.
How does it work?
The user selects an element (e.g. a form) from the list.
Then selects two versions: the “left” and the “right.”
The system presents the differences between versions – these can be changes in content, code, structure or properties.
This functionality allows a detailed review of changes before saving a new version, when reviewing history or working in a team.
Tab Compare artifacts – comparison of two exported elements
Allows you to compare two files .xml or .json with exported application elements – focusing on their dependencies.
How does it work?
The user drags two files into the drag & drop.
The system analyzes dependencies and presents a list of differences.
Types of detected differences:
➕ New dependency – occurs only in the second file.
➖ Removed dependency – occurred only in the first file.
🔁 Dependency version difference – the dependency concerns the same element, but with a different version.
If no differences are detected, the following message appears: “No data to display”.
When to use comparison?
Before publishing a new component version – to make sure what has changed.
During code review – to assess changes introduced by the team.
During migration – to compare exports between environments.
During integration – to ensure that dependencies match expectations.
