Goal

To create a continuous integration system for open simulator grids which can automate both builds and testing.

I might be mistaken but I think you can get all of the features you're looking for with Cruise Control: http://cruisecontrol.sourceforge.net/ It's free and cross-platform. The programmers at my lab use it for continuous integration of Java code but I'm pretty sure you can support most Nant-based build environments with it. Hope this helps. Sorry to post here but I'm not in the regular discussion groups. Please delete if you need to. -Pierce

People

The list of people who are working to develop a solution:

  • Daedius Moskvitch (daedius @@@@@ daedius.com)

Features

  • Crossplatform
  • Notification via email,irc,web
  • Master-Slave architecture
  • Nant support
  • NUnit support
  • Support for grid testing

Released Versions

0.1

Released: January 1st, 2008
A simple application that can detect changes on the opensim svn, attempt compile, and return whether it was successful or not

Features

  • svn source control support
  • svn change detection
  • linux and windows support

Installation

Right now there is nant build files and visual studio 2005 solution.

Special Notes For Running

After compiling the application, make sure you have the correct application configuration file for your operating system (the current default is Windows, it will fail on Linux if you do not change). Just rename the right App.config to "BuildBot.exe.config".

Other Notes

  • Deletion can be problematic
  • I think TortoiseSVN causes alot of trouble when deleting source control directories
  • Need more user friendly exceptions
  • A good way to force building, is to change the LatestTime.txt to a few days back ( to gaurantee that new changes are detected)
  • HAPPY NEW YEARS!
