build-automation

I have a web application that relies on several modules. So to build it, I have a master pom.xml file. What I want this pom file to do is to checkout out all the modules. below is my pom file. <executions> <execution> <id>check-out-project1</id> <phase>generate-sources</phase> <goals> <goal>checkout</goal> </goals> <configuration> <checkoutDirectory>${project.build.directory}/module1</checkoutDirectory> <connectionUrl>scm:svn:svn://svnserver/svn/module1/trunk</connectionUrl> <!--<developerConnection>scm:svn:svn://svnserver/svn/module1/trunk</developerConnection>!--> <username>username<

Does anyone know how to automate UWP with Desktop Bridge (Desktop Extension) package build (.appxupload/.appxbundle) by using MSbuild tool? I've got the setup like on the following blog . For the simple UWP app (without Desktop Extension) I’m able to this with the following command: msbuild UWP.sln /p:Configuration=Release;AppxBundle=Always;AppxBundlePlatforms=”x86|x64|ARM”;UapAppxPackageBuildMode=StoreUpload However, when I try it on Package.wapproj I’ve got a bunch of errors. For instance, although Package project has a certificate, UWP project also demands one (why?), when I workaround that

I have a buildbot with some builders and two slave machines. Some of the builders can run on one slave, and some of them can run on both machines. What algorithm will buildbot use to schedule the builds? Will it notice that some builders can run on just one slave and that it should assign those that can run on both slaves to the less demanded one? (I know buildbot can be used to run the same build on multiple architectures, say Windows, Linux, etc. We are using it to distribute builds for performance, because a single build is enough for us). First it gets a list of all the slaves attached to

I have two projects set up in CruiseControl.NET: CI build and nightly build. Both of them execute the same NAnt script, but with different parameters. The CruiseControl.NET label (currently generated by the DefaultLabeler ) is embedded into AssemblyInfo as the build part of the version (for example, MajorVersion.MinorVersion.CCNET_Label.SVN_Revision ). For more consistent versioning I would like both projects to share the same CruiseControl.NET label value. I have investigated the labelers that are available as part of the CruiseControl.NET installation, but I could not find one that does what

Are there any tools for editing PhotoShop files from a command line? I would like to add steps to our automated build process (MS Build) that takes original PhotoShop files that our artists make and produce .png files; I'm looking at a very few operations like photoshop-to-png, resize and possibly showing/hiding layers. I haven't had a lot of luck finding a tool I can use for this. If it is possible to script this with Photoshop itself, or a Photoshop utility, that'd be awesome. You've got a few options in your case: Using variables/datasets in Photoshop As b3bop, using JavaScript(jsx).

I'm trying to configure my WAR project build to fail if the line or branch coverage is below given thresholds. I've been using the configuration provided on page 455 of the excellent book Java Power Tools , but with no success. Here's the relevant snippet of my project's Maven 2 POM: <build> ... <plugins> <plugin> <groupId>org.codehaus.mojo</groupId> <artifactId>cobertura-maven-plugin</artifactId> <version>2.2</version> <configuration> <check> <!-- Per-class thresholds --> <lineRate>80</lineRate> <branchRate>80</branchRate> <!-- Project-wide thresholds --> <totalLineRate>90</totalLineRate>

I would like to find a way to compile and package our iPhone application as part of our automated nightly build. At present we always have to manually kick off a build on a shared Mac that has the adhoc certificates installed on the box and then post the resulting test binaries some place where testers can pull them down and install them. Has anyone found an approach to automation that works for them? There's a command line tool to build Xcode projects: xcodebuild Try using xcodebuild, it'll build an Xcode project from the command line. You can then pull the binaries out of the build directory
