Publisher review:CruiseControl is a framework for a continuous build process. CruiseControl is a framework for a continuous build process. It includes, but is not limited to, plugins for email notification, Ant, and various source control tools. A web interface is provided to view the details of the current and previous builds.
CruiseControl is composed of 3 main modules:
- the build loop: core of the system, it triggers build cycles then notifies various listeners (users) using various publishing techniques. The trigger can be internal (scheduled or upon changes in a SCM) or external. It is configured in a xml file which maps the build cycles to certain tasks, thanks to a system of plugins. Depending on configuration, it may produce build artifacts.
- the legacy reporting allows the users to browse the results of the builds and access the artifacts
- the dashboard provides a visual representation of all project build statuses. This modularity allows users to install CruiseControl where it will best fit their needs and environment.
Using remoting technologies (HTTP, RMI), it is possible to control and monitor the CruiseControl build loop. Those are turned off by default for obvious security reasons.
