I was pretty busy this past week and didn’t have time to post that Chapter 9 of our book, Continuous Integration in .NET has been posted to the Manning web site. In this chapter you’ll learn how to automatically generate documentation, use XML documentation, and generate documentation with Sandcastle. If you’re on the MEAP program, you can download your MEAP update.
Watch for Chapter 10 to come along soon.
More chapters for Continuous Integration in .NET are now available to MEAP subscribers. This means you can get a look at what we’re working on. And please provide us feedback in the Author Online forum. Here’s what you can find in the latest MEAP:
Chapter 7 has arrived! This chapter takes you deeper into testing in your continuous integration environment. You’ll go beyond unit testing to integration, system, and acceptance testing. You will learn when it is good to use tools like Selenium, White, or FitNesse in your CI process.
Chapter 8 is also new! Here you will learn why you should obey some coding rules and best practices and how to incorporate enforcing these rules into CI. In this chapter, we will look at FxCop, StyleCop, and (briefly) NDepend and how to use them to continuously analyze the code.
As always, happy MEAPing!
