Unit Testing, Agile Development, Leadership & .NET - By Roy Osherove
The excitement of being able to install and to set up new builds with unit tests in less than an hour was fantastic. Unfortunately it's been tempered slightly by the lack of C# code coverage. Anyone been able to get that working
Roy,
You might want to take a stab at our <a href="www.viewtier.com/.../a>. Its killer feature is practically unbreakable scheduled builds. With Parabuild your scheduled builds will be successful even if the head of the codebase is broken.

Kevin : That's why I'm calling Finaluilder from within TeamCity. FB is where I doo all the complex work. TeacmCity is just a nice wrapper and trigger mechanism around it with nice statiscitcs, delayed commits and so on.
I'm glad this basic feature is at last starting to take hold. I think the next basic CI feature would be automatic notifications of people checking in code that you have modified. That way you can do an update while you're working instead of just before you check in. That will reduce the chance of checking in after someone else which happens all to often.
Of course you could always have a system where you only check into the branch and then if the build succeeds it gets checked into the trunk. Then you would still have a record of the broken builds for the purpose of backup where someone makes significant changes that aren't complete but still need to be kept and possibly fixed by someone else.
You may want to try Automated Build Studio-- we use it for over two years and we like it a lot
Voor iedereen die het nog niet kent: FinalBuilder is wat mij betreft zonder enige twijfel de beste deployment
Hello Roy,
Thank you for such a positive feedback. We are really glad to know our efforts were not in vain.

Hi Roy,
Hmm, I can think of no situation in which CI Factory would ever put you in a position of having to mess with MSBuild targets. If you want to use Final Builder CI Factory supports that choice.
What made you think you needed to mess with MSBuild targets?
Smiles,
Jay
Roy, FinalBuilder isn't in the list of supported build runners. I haven't downloaded TeamCity yet, but is it possible to run FinalBuilder from TeamCity?
Dennis: I was able to run it very easily by using a command line call to Fbcmd.exe and it works great here at Typemock.
Thanks for the feedback, all. I am going to give TeamSite a try with some new stuff that I am working on. I am a long-time CCNet user and advocate, so I know what I do and do not like about it. Hopefully the bad will be fixed without losing any of the good :)
