CANBERRA, AUSTRALIA May 22, 2007 -- FinalBuilder Server, a major addition to FinalBuilder 5 Professional, has been released. Through an intuitive web interface, FinalBuilder Server centralises build projects allowing software developers and members of development teams to easily monitor and control all of their builds.
FinalBuilder Server comes free with FinalBuilder 5.5 Professional to allow users to more effectively manage multiple build projects. Its functionality centralises build control by allowing authorised users to start, stop and schedule any build, while allowing anyone with a web browser to view build logs and performance statistics.
"Our customers requested a tool for controlling their builds through a web interface" said Vincent Parrett, director of VSoft Technologies, "and now here it is!"
"In FinalBuilder Server, we've tried to balance functionality with useability. It combines enough features to make it incredibly useful, while ensuring the interface is intuitive enough for FinalBuilder 5.5 Professional users to start benefiting from it immediately."
"We're excited about releasing FinalBuilder Server free for our FinalBuilder 5.5 Professional users. It will make possible more effective build management through easily accessible build information and build project independence from particular developers or machines."
Features of FinalBuilder Server include:
- Centralized interface for controlling builds.
- Convenient project statistics collected from all previous builds.
- Builds logs from the current and previous builds.
- Email notifications when a build starts, stops, changes, etc.
- Schedule for building daily, nightly, weekly, etc.
- Authorisation to allow users to control projects, or just view the results.
- Easy to use web based interface.
- RSS feeds with the build status.
