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
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
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 :)
