Hi all,
I want to deploy continuous integration in my company. We are using Perforce. Can any one guide me for this.
(which tool is best? and How to do it? and any existing code/project example available?)


Thanks,
Raju

Hi Raju,

Could you please tell me following inputs before answer your questions..
1. Build Script (ant, maven, shell or perl)
2. Do you need Static Code Analysis tools to be integrated or its already done.
3. Do you need testing tools and test coverage tools to be integrated.
4. What is the frequency of build you generate everyday?
5. Why do you need CI tools in your project?
6. Are you are looking for commercial tool or open Source Tools?

once you answer following questions, i will be able to tell you correct tools which you can go ahead and implement smoothly with the project?

Thanks Rajesh for replying !!

Here is answer to your question

1. Build Script (ant, maven, shell or perl)
Ans: In my company we are using technologies like .Net, Java, VB, C (Unix) and for this we are using different scripting lang as Nant, Ant, Shell)
I would prefere Ant

2. Do you need Static Code Analysis tools to be integrated or its already done.
Ans: No idea for this.

3. Do you need testing tools and test coverage tools to be integrated.
Ans: Not require now..

4. What is the frequency of build you generate everyday?
Ans: We have total 15-20 client and I guess for each client 1 build/per week is require.

5. Why do you need CI tools in your project?
Ans: 1. To create nightly build
2. To let developper if they sobmitted wronge code
3. Require Dashboard to see the build status and its shedule.


6. Are you are looking for commercial tool or open Source Tools?
Ans: Preferable OpenSource but comrcial tool will do if its best fit

Thanks,
Raju

Hello Rajesh,

Could you please provide me your update on my question posted above.

Thanks,

Hi,

By Given Senario, I Would recommend CruiseControl for Java and CruiseControl.net for Microsoft would be great deal.

if you are planning to migrate from ant to maven the Hudson+Sonar+Maven combination would be grt.

Thanks for answering my queries.

Is "C" build from Unix environment is posible by either of cruisecontrol.net Or cruisecontrol for java?
