I am just curious to see what others are doing during build-automation other than usual compile, build, run-tests, etc tasks that might be helpful and inspirational for others to consider and look into such as: Generating code documentation Using code-metrics to measure build quality and fail the build if established metrics are violat...

I have 3 TFS Builds (2 Dev and 1 Cert). I would like to modularize the builds so I don't have to edit 3 files each time I make a change to the common items. The problem I have is that Only the items in the build folder (under TeamBuildTypes) are automatically retrieved by the Team Build. I can put in code in my build process to get ot...
We get the above error message on our build server, when we build the solution or the specific project that the error refers to. We can build the solution without any problem using visual studio (also on the build server), however it fails with the above error when running msbuild. Any Ideas? ...
As part of some build automation of running xUnit.net tests with MSBuild, I'm running into a case where I need to loop over a batch of items. Inside the loop, I need to detect whether an iteration failed, but I want to continue executing regardless. Then after the batched bit, I need to know whether one or more errors have occurred in ...
I have a solution I'm trying to get to build on TFS. I want to update the versions of all appropriate files, and I've been stuck trying to get this done. There are plenty of links on how to do it, but none of them work for me, due to one little issue... Scope. <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <Project DefaultTargets="DesktopBui...
I'm in the process of developing several custom build scripts for TFS and I'd like to know if there are any best practices for developing, testing and deploying TFS build scripts. Do you setup development and QC environments that are seperate from the production build server? Are there other ways to isolate the process of developing the...
Using Team Foundation Build, I'm invoking the xunit.net xunit task, which is /platform:AnyCpu, but my TeamBuild invocation of the TFSBuild.proj is vanilla. I have a number of tests that are x64 specific (`/platform:x64'), which choke with an ImageFormatException. I have also a test asembly that's marked x86 so it can't be all or nothing...
Currently we have a team project setup like below (in regards to branches) Team Project |__Developement |__Development - Isolated Feature Dev |__Main |__Production The issue that i have, is that when we want to do a team build on the production branch solution, it copies the entire team project...

I have Team Build set up against multiple branches with multiple solutions in each branch. Currently my notification tels me that the build has broken ina branch but I need to open the build report and drill down to find out which solution failed to build. Is there any way to get a break down of which solution failed in an email or othe...
I’m trying to set up Team Foundation Build and so far it’s running ok with builds, tests and code analysis. My problem is, that I can’t figure out how to build just a subset of the projects included in the solution. I know how to use the configuration manager to create custom solution configuration that will build/deploy a selection of...
A followup to this question, Building select projects only with Team Foundation Build: I’ve now successfully “isolated” three of the projects in a solution with 20+ projects. One of the three projects is a test project, which contains unit tests for one of the other projects (a class library). Team Build is running fine, just the three ...
We have a dev branch and a main branch--obviously both have the same relative paths. Is it possible to use one build definition across both branches and dynamically change the path in the build definition file? ...
Hi I have team build script for CI and nightly builds, both of which runs unit tests with code coverage.
