We have been running continuous integration builds for some time now using Draco.NET, which has been working well for us. It was relatively easy to get it set up, but I also picked up a copy of FinalBuilder to run more complex tasks like unit testing and remote builds to deployment servers. Draco appears to run its builds from a temporary folder which it immediately deletes.
We have a fairly comprehensive set of NUnit tests developed now and I was looking to hook them up through FB to run on the coattails of every Draco run, which is triggered by check-ins. I know I can set FB to monitor VSS directly for source changes, but it seems counter-intuitive to have multiple batch processes monitoring the same source when they could simply be daisy-chained. I figured at the least I’d be able to have FB look for some trace of Draco activity, so rather than reinvent the wheel I started Googling for an example of how to set this up easily.
Suprisingly I came up empty on the first pass. Does anyone on this forum have a suggestion as to where I should look?
David,
I would say the best way to do it would be for Draco to kick off FinalBuilder when Draco has finished doing it’s stuff. In this case it could run FBCMD and pass in the project file and other parameters via the command line.
