Cruise Control.Net best practices [closed]

Question

I'm going to implement a CI process with CC.NET so I'm looking for best practices for CC.net implementation.

I use SVN as source control and JIRA as an issue tracker (if it's a useful tip).

Any recommandation or article suggestion will be appreciated.

Note: I read this article by Martin Fowler.

Answer 1

You can start by going through the best practices that Thoughtworks themselves have compiled - CC.NET Best Practices. From there, I would recommend the documentation provided by Thoughtworks. Just go down the list in the "Getting Started" section under the "For Users" heading. Yes, it's an overview, but you have to start somewhere and where better to start than with the basics. After that, Google is your best friend. You might also want to look up your local .NET User Group through ineta.org; these groups can be invaluable sources of information on programming in .NET environments.

Answer 2

I know that you've said that you're going to use CC.NET but I would be tempted to look at TeamCity by JetBrains the guys produce Resharper. I have used CC.NET in the past, but when I used TeamCiy for the first time I was very impressed.
