Better Log Formatting for CruiseControl.NET and MSBuild

cruisecontrol This is just a blog post to bump the topic on search engines to help people using MSBuild and CruiseControl.NET to get to the right place. I personally recommend to use the "Improved MSBuild Integration" logging option by Christian Rodemyer. If you follow the instructions on this page, you'll get it right.

You may also have to change the dashboard stylesheet somewhat if you want to add or remove smileys or other GUI-related things depending on the results from unit testing etc, but the output in the CruiseControl dashboard is nice and clean.

Johan,

If you don't mind products that work out of the box, you might want to look at our Parabuild www.viewtier.com/.../parabuild.htm. It shows MSBuild logs fine without requiring additional changes.
