I'm starting work on a hobby project with a python codebase and would like to set up some form of continuous integration (i.e. running a battery of test-cases each time a check-in is made and sending nag e-mails to responsible persons when the tests fail) similar to CruiseControl or TeamCity. I realize I could do this with hooks in most...
I'm looking into using Visual Studio 2008's built in unit test projects instead of NUnit and I was wondering if anyone has any experience in trying to integrate this type of unit test project with Cruise Control.Net....
What tools would you recommend for setting up CI for build and deployment of multiple websites built on DotNetNuke using SVN for source control? We are currently looking at configuring Cruise Control to work with NAnt, NUnit, NCover and Trac as a test case. What other combinations would worth investigating? We have full control of our...
Hello, I'm currently in the process of setting up a continuous integration environment at work. We are using VisualSVN Server and CrusieControl.NET. Occasionally a build will fail and a symptom is that there are conflicts in the CruiseControl.NET working copy. I believe this is due to the way I've setup the Visual Studio solutions. Hopef...
Has anyone been able to get xinc to run correctly under OpenBSD's chrooted default Apache? I'd like to keep our development server running fully chrooted just like our Production server so that we make sure our code runs just fine chrooted. ...
I use cruisecontrol.rb for CI and FogBugz for bug tracking, but the more general the answers, the better. First is the technical problem: is there an API for FogBugz? Are there good tutorials, or better yet, pre-written code? Second is the procedural problem: what, exactly, should the CI put in the bug tracker when the build breaks? ...
I'm setting up my team's source control + build/integration process from scratch. We were using VSS and a tool we created in-house to perform the build process. We decided to move on to a more modern environment. I have the SVN running, and I would like to set a continuous integration process with CruiseControl.NET. Is there a good step-...
Continuous Integration toolchains for .NET and Java Continous Integration are relatively well defined, but the C++ market seems to have less consensus. By CI "toolchain" I specifically mean tools for the build scripts, automated testing, coding standards checking, etc. all with preference given to tools that integrate with CI tools eas...
I'm trying to setup CruiseControl.net webdashboard at the moment. So far it works nice, but I have a problem with the NAnt Build Timing Report. Firstly, my current ccnet.config file looks something like this: <project name="bla"> ... <prebuild> <nant .../> </prebuild> <tasks> <nant .../> </tasks> <publishers> <nant .../> </publisher...
Setting up an integration server, I’m in doubt about the best approach regarding using multiple tasks to complete the build. Is the best way to set all in just one big-job or make small dependent ones? ...
For some reason, I can't seem to get CruiseControl.net to checkout code to anywhere but the starteam working folder for a specificed view. I've tried both overrideViewWorkingDir and overrideFolderWorkingDir, and neither seem to work. Has anyone been able to do this? ...
I'm using Hudson and Maven 2 for my automated build/CI. I can build fine with maven from the command line, but when I run the same goal with Hudson, the build fails complaining of missing artifacts. I'm running Hudson as a windows XP service. ...
We are currently evaluating different applications that interface with Visual Studio 2008 (C#) and Subversion to do automated builds of our core libraries. We are hoping to have nightly builds performed and either email the list of changes made to each developer or have the latest versions be pushed to each workstation. What has been y...
OK, so we all know the daily build is the heart beat of a project, but whats the single best way of automating it? We have perl scripts wrapping our pipeline which includes ClearCase, VS2005 (C++), Intel FORTRAN, Inno setup. We use cron jobs on UNIX to schedule the build, and host a simple Apache web server to view and monitor the buil...
Correct me if I'm wrong, but a "build" is a "compile", and not every language compiles. Continuous Integration involves building components to see if they continue to work beyond unit tests, which I might be oversimplifying. But if your project involves a language that does not compile, how do you perform nightly builds or use continuous...
I am in a position where I could become a team leader of a team distributed over two countries. This team would be the tech. team for a start up company that we plan to bootstrap on limited funds. So I am trying to find out ways to minimize upfront expenses. Right now we are planning to use Java and will have a lot of junit tests. I a...
I have to admit that I always forgot the syntactical intracacies of the naming patterns for Nant (eg. those used in filesets). The double asterisk/single asterisk stuff seems to be very forgettable in my mind. Can someone provide a definitive guide to the naming patterns? ...
How can I construct a MSBuild ItemGroup to exclude .svn directories and all files within (recursively). I've got: <ItemGroup> <LibraryFiles Include="$(LibrariesReleaseDir)\**\*.*" Exclude=".svn" /> </ItemGroup> At the moment, but this does not exclude anything! ...
Our team is setting up nightly and continuous integration builds. We own Team Foundation Server and could use Team Foundation Build. I'm more familiar with CC.Net and lean that way but management sees all the money spent on TFS and wants to use it. Some things I like better about CC.Net is the flexibility of notifications as well as t...
I want to setup a Trac server to support my developer team work along with Bitten as a Continuous Integration server. We are using the Scrum development process. What are the Trac's plugins, hacks, macros or configurations I could use to fit my team needs ? ...
