Compare results

Domino provides comparison tools to help you analyze changes in Files, Jobs, and Project states so you can manage Project artifact changes and audit those changes more effectively.

Compare Jobs

On the Jobs Dashboard, select exactly two Jobs by checking the checkbox in the left-hand column. Then click the icon indicating comparison, above the table.

The Job comparison view shows the following:

  • Differences in summary metadata and diagnostic statistics

  • Differences in the files as they were when the Job ran

  • Differences in the Results of the Jobs

Certain file types will be rendered side by side for visual comparison. Other types (e.g., binaries) will simply be listed as different.

You have the option to comment not only on the comparison itself but also on the comparison between two files.

Compare file versions

To compare different file versions, view a file and click the Compare Revisions button. This enables side-by-side viewing of two selected versions.

Compare Project states from the Activity Feed

On the Activity Feed screen, select two Workspaces or Jobs and click the compare button at the top of the page.
