CruiseControl.Net - View report / log of build in progress.

Question

We have a fairly lengthy build process, and so its nice to be able to see the build output / log of the build while the build is in still in progress.

Is there any way of doing this with CruiseControl.Net / MSBuild?

Answer 1

I'm not sure there's a way of doing it in CruiseControl.Net. But have you tried TeamCity? As a long time CC fan, I've just switched to TeamCity (they have a free Professional version which supports 20 configurations and 3 build/test servers).

Continuous build log reporting is one of the really nice features about TeamCity - it even reports the status of Tests as they pass or fail. The other nice thing is the very-much-simpler configuration - no more xml files!
