Continuous Integration

Still heads down, but this is so cool, I have to share:

Having had an introduction to XP and the idea of Continuous Integration , where I was exposed to CruiseControl while working in the Java world.

For awhile now, I've been searching far and wide for the equivalent to this tool in the .NET world, but with no luck. Finally, I came across Draco.NET which is modeled after CruiseControl.

I dinked around with it for awhile, a few months back, but it had some issues and put it aside. I finally got some time this morning to work on it, and got it all worked out and I'm cruising!

I'm curious, for those of you out there doing automated builds, how often do you do them? I'm thinking of trying every hour, and adjust from there if it's too often.

We are using cruisecontrol.net to run our Nant builds. Cruisecontrol is set up to do the build and our Nunit test scripts everytime someone does a checkin. No add bad code to the source base and we always know that our source control code always compiles and passes the unit test. It is the first time I have run test and build that are activated with a checkin, so we will see how it works.
