Continuous Integration Question
Hi.
In doing some research, I've come across various apps that deal with the
concept of Continuous Integration/Software Production Management, which
apparently is the process of being able to manage the process of
creating/developing/building/testing/releasing projects/apps using
repositories/build processes/etc... The CI/SPM process, also apparently
allows for the implementation of workflow processes/procedures for managing
the various apps/projects while being developed.
I've got a project in mind, that's going to require lots of little python
apps that will need to be developed/built/tested/run multiple times, and to
be recreated for each semester. (the apps deal with course schedules for
colleges). Subversion would of course be the repository of choice, and since
it appears that a number of the CI type of apps I've seen use SVN, I figured
that I'd see if anyone here has actually used/implemented a CI/SPM system,
and what your thoughts are.
Thanks

Bruce,
FYE: CruiseControl.NET, Nant and NantContrib are all open source.
Generally well maintained, well supported (via e-mail lists like this)
and stable.

Hi List...
And thanks for the initial replies. I've looked at a number of the apps
that
some have mentioned (anthill/hudson), but none very deeply (my bad!).
I've provided a little more information on exactly what I'm looking to
do..
***OH, need to stress, open source/free, as this is a side project!!!***
Again, any thoughts/pointers are appreciated!
---------------------
Basically, I'm looking to create a crawler/parser app that's going to
parse/crawl course/class schedules of US colleges. As such, each college
will have a separate python/perl script for this action. I need a web
based
app to manage the create/development/test/release/run(production)
process
for all the scripts, for each college. So, I'd want to be able to
manually/automaticly schedule the testing/run process, as well as track
the
overall status of the given scripts as they move through the system. So,
there'd need to be some kind of "workflow" process/function, (perhaps as
simple as moving from one dir to another, based on the success of the
parent
process).
I'd also like something LAMP based, witha web-based UI to manage the
entire
process. It would also be useful if the management app CI/SPM also
provided
feedback/status on the various dev/production machines in the system.
Here's a basic "flow/dir" structure that I'm considering:
initial_script_dir
-used to store the script for the college that's
being developed
-once script is created/released, it goes into the
testing folder for the college/semester
testing_dir
-used to house the scripts as they're being tested.
-the idea is to test/release a script for one semester
at a time
-the dir houses the college_dir for each college
-the college_dir, contains the actual script being tested
for the college (separate dir, for each college)
-college_dir
contains the script being tested for the semester
for the college
once script has been successfully tested/released,
it's promoted/moved to the actual college/semester_dir
college_dir
-for each college, contains the parsing script in
the semester dir
-each semester_dir contains a copy of the script for
that semester
semester_dir
-a separate dir for each semester, based on actual
month/day/year
-contains actual production script
The idea is that as a script is created, it gets tested/checked, and
passed
through to the next phase of the system. I'm looking for an app that has
underlying function, that can be somewhat modified for my needs. A Web
based
UI would also be good in order to manage the overall process.
Thoughts/comments are appreciated...
Thanks

I think many (if not most) of us on this list have, and used
Subversion with some sort of CI/SPM system.
I use Hudson for my CI environment. We use "Ant" and "Maven" which are
meant for Java projects, but Hudson also allows you to execute custom
scripts. So, you could have a shell script (or Python script) that
runs some tests and packages your build.
Hudson automatically will run a build on each check in. You can also
adjust it to wait a certain period of time after a check in in those
cases where you have to do multiple checkins.
Hudson is very fast, usually starting a build with in a minute of a
check in, and it is very easy to configure. The main developer is also
very quick to make fixes and incorporate suggestions. I highly
recommend you take a look at it: <https://hudson.dev.java.net/>.

Apps like Hudson, various flavors of CruiseControl etc are nice but for true and serious CI I only consider two:

TeamCity http://www.jetbrains.com/teamcity/

RE: Continuous Integration Question
Posted by "Parrish, Ken" <KP...@gomez.com>.
Bruce,
I manage the build environment for some 40 different applications and
have implemented continuous integration and configuration management all
of these.
We use CruiseControl.NET for continuous integration and Nant (with
NantContrib) for configuration management, deployment and other
administration tasks.
In our case, all tasks are implemented in Nant scripts and then the Nant
scripts called from within CruiseControl.NET. In these way, any
specific task can be executed manually via the command line, tested,
vetted before incorporation in the continuous integration script. As
well, our Nant scripts are designed to be 'cascading' so that you can go
to any point in the software directory structure to invoke a build or
configuration management operation. This allow CruiseControl to invoke
the a build/configuration management operation at a logical point in the
directory hierarchy.
Since much of our development is in .NET, our Nant scripts invoke
MSBuild for compiling our .NET applications, but all other configuration
management, deployment and versioning operations are implement in Nant.

Apparently SVN uses BuildBot: http://buildbot.net/trac/wiki/SuccessStories
I hadn't heard of it until just now...

I used CruisControl years back in a previously mostly Java project.
These
days I'm using BuildBot for my Python-based projects. Seems a
lot of OSS
projects are using it as well.
RE: Continuous Integration Question
Posted by Keith Moore <Ke...@securency.com>.
We use the Cruise Control .net continuous integration server, from ThoughtWorks. All our code is in one subversion repository and all our projects, on cruise control, are built with NAnt scripts.
Each project has two items in cruise control. The first is the continuous build, this one is built every 20 minutes or so if there has been a change. Below is a summary of the script actions:
1. Update the local working copy with the latest changes from the repository.
2. Build the project.
3. Run unit tests, currently using NUnit.
4. Run features tests, currently using FitNesse.
If any of these actions fail then the build fails.
The second item for the project is a release build. This item is not scheduled it is developer initiated. When a project is ready for release this build does all the actions above, although debugging information is removed from the output, with the final step a svn copy to the projects Tags directory. We have plans to copy the project output to our web server for simple deployment.
If a build starts failing we give it priority and get it working again as soon as possible. It has also simplified our release process.
All in all I'd say we're pretty happy with our CI setup, although I can'ty speak for the other team members.

Subject: Continuous Integration Question
Hi.
In doing some research, I've come across various apps that deal with the concept of Continuous Integration/Software Production Management, which apparently is the process of being able to manage the process of creating/developing/building/testing/releasing projects/apps using repositories/build processes/etc... The CI/SPM process, also apparently allows for the implementation of workflow processes/procedures for managing the various apps/projects while being developed.
I've got a project in mind, that's going to require lots of little python apps that will need to be developed/built/tested/run multiple times, and to be recreated for each semester. (the apps deal with course schedules for colleges). Subversion would of course be the repository of choice, and since it appears that a number of the CI type of apps I've seen use SVN, I figured that I'd see if anyone here has actually used/implemented a CI/SPM system, and what your thoughts are.
Thanks
