如何将Cake版本的输出集成到TFS 2013版本中？

Question

We're using cake for defining our .NET builds, primarily so we can run the same build on developer stations as on the build server. TFS 2013 is our actual CI platform; the build workflow is effectively just a RunScript activity which invokes powershell and runs cake via its build.ps1 script.

The basic build is working well enough, and I'm on to having it generate reports (unit test results, coverage reports, etc). I'd like to have these reports appear in the build's Summary screen, but at the moment the only feedback the build gives me is the console output from cake under the build logs. The report files are being generated and dropped into the build's ./tst/ folder, but the contents of that folder aren't appearing anywhere in the build information.

How can I get test reports to be added to the build summary and/or information pages?

Answer 1

With the default build process template, when you build a test project, you will be able to get test result and code coverage (if you enable it) by default. So if you use VS Test Runner to run the tests, you can refer to the default process template.

If you need other tool to run the teats, you can add the InvokeProcess activity (execute the command line) to invoke the tool to test your project in build process template.

In addition, you can use the WriteCustomSummaryInformation activity in your workflow. The result is that you can display results, hyperlinks, and more on the build summary page.
