Dear All,
I am part of a small group of developers using Eclipse both as a Java
IDE and as a platform for some modelling tools. We have a primitive
overnight compilation system which reads a list of projects from a
text file, checks out each project from CVS, generates Makefiles,
compiles them using javac, runs any JUnit tests and mails the results
to the development team.
This system was built from a few sh and perl scripts, and although
functional is quite limited.
We would like to be able to perform tests and generate reference
output automatically, and also to allow individual developers to
control test procedures without having to write scripts on the server.
I also have looked briefly at cruisecontrol, but this seems to want
to work on a single CVS project at a time, whereas we have quite a
large number of related projects.
I would be very grateful for any hints or advice from anyone using
automated build and test tools, alongside or integrated with Eclipse.
Thanks in advance,
Paul Henshaw

Paul,
I might be mistaken, but if you wrote an appropriate build.xml file
instead of putting the information about the projects in a text file,
you should be able to do everything mentioned above with ant
http://ant.apache.org
