Thanks to everyone that came to the last meetup, I think deployment is a really big subject, and ti would be great to get more knowledge in the area.
I would still like to see capistrano in action in the hands of an expert, push it to the limits. And we definitely need better tools in the .Net space ( or to learn about them if they are out there and we are not aware of them), What is everyone using?
Anyway, moving on…
Behavioour Driven Development is the topic of this meetup
- Jon Hurd is going to talk about Cucumber
- Ruben Bartelink is going to introduce us to SubSpec
One Comment
We perform deployments using PowerShell scripts.
PowerShell scripts work brilliantly for us – one command execution deployment, nice and simple
We treat builds (done via CruiseControl) separate from deployments
Our current deployment scripts include deploying web services/applications and windows services.
Anyone else going down this route?
NOTE: We are also using PowerShell for alot of build stuff which is then executed via CruiseControl – psake (James Kavacs) is an option we are about to look into for this in the future
