<h3><a name="WhatisCruiseControl.NET-TheCruiseControl.NETServer"></a>The CruiseControl.NET Server</h3>
|
|
|
|
<p>CruiseControl.NET (CCNet) consists of a suite of applications, but at its core is the <b><a href="CruiseControl.NET Server.html" title="CruiseControl.NET Server">CruiseControl.NET Server</a></b> which is an <b>automated integration server</b>. </p>
|
|
|
|
<p>The Server automates the integration process by monitoring the team's source control repository directly. Every time a developer commits a new set of modifications, the server will automatically launch an integration build to validate the changes. When the build is complete, the server notifies the developer whether the changes that they committed integrated successfully or not. </p>
|
|
|
|
<p>Read more about this process at <a href="CruiseControl.NET Integration Process.html" title="CruiseControl.NET Integration Process">CruiseControl.NET Integration Process</a>.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>Effectively, integration becomes as easy as checking in code. Using an automated integration server not only makes integration easy, it also guarantees that an integration build will happen. There is no danger of developers forgetting to validate their changes after checking in.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>The CCNet Server offers several key features: </p>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Integration with a variety of Source Control systems</li>
|
|
<li>Integration with other external tools, such as NAnt and Visual Studio</li>
|
|
<li>Can build multiple projects on one server</li>
|
|
<li>Remote management and reporting</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
