Show me one large organization that does project automation well. I'm literally not permitted to build my projects with Maven at work (this does seem to be Maven-ized), and I suspect I'm far from the only Java developer in that boat.
- mbell 14y agoThats scary, so you build the production files out of an IDE? What happens if some developer has a slightly different IDE config? Or the IDE has cached some compiled file that no longer actually compiles due to a change? Personally I build all my test/stage/production releases on single Jenkins box that does a full clean before building (actually it auto builds off a github hook).
- yock 14y agoIt's okay, because someone else is building the production artifacts and they're using a different tool. </sarcasm> I have a Jenkins install on a "found" server (belonged to a project that no longer exists, never gave the server back to infra) so I know my tests pass and my Ant scripts produce good artifacts. Still, it would be nice to step away from Ant and use something requiring less effort (and, could automatically resolve my dependencies, which by the way are a whole other battle).
