• Got Project Automation? by Mike Clark   - [Clicks: 144]
  Editor's Note: In his new book, Pragmatic Project Automation, Mike Clark gives you soup-to-nuts recipes for automating your software project: creating one-step builds with Ant, scheduling continuous builds with CruiseControl, generating software releases at the push of a button, installing and deploying applications with ease, and monitoring builds and running programs via email, RSS, your cell phone, and, yes, even lava lamps. The recipes include working examples that make it easy for beginners to follow along, while more advanced topics teach the old hands something new. In this article, he presents an overview of the benefits that automating your project can bring.

  Continuous Integration is one of the buzzwords most people have probably heard of but surprisingly few are actually following this XP best practice. Keeping this in mind, I'll begin this tutorial by briefly describing what Continuous Integration actually means, why you should consider doing it, and finally, showing step by step how to do it using one of the most used Continuous Integration products, the open source CruiseControl developed by a bunch of ThoughtWorkers.

• Pragmatic Project Automation: How to Build, Deploy, and Monitor Java Apps  by Mike Clark   - [Clicks: 67]
  Forget wizards, you need a slave--someone to do your repetitive, tedious and boring tasks, without complaint and without pay, so you'll have more time to design and write exciting code. Enlist your computer to automate all of your Java project's repetitive tasks from individual builds and testing through to product release and deployment. Enjoy pragmatic, automatic, unattended software production that's reliable and accurate every time.
