copied!<p>Thank you all for your kind suggestions. We checked them all out, but after careful consideration we decided to roll our own with a combination of CruiseControl, NAnt, MSBuild and MSDeploy.</p> <p>This article has some great information: <a href="http://dougrohm.com/blog/post/2006/01/29/Integrating-MSBuild-with-CruiseControlNET.aspx" rel="noreferrer">Integrating MSBuild with CruiseControl.NET </a></p> <p>Here's roughly how our solution works:</p> <ul> <li>Developers build the 'debug' version of the app and run unit tests, then check in to SVN.</li> <li>CruiseControl sees the updates and calls our build script... <ul> <li>Runs any new migrations on the build database</li> <li>Replaces the config files with the build server config</li> <li>Builds the 'debug' configuration of the app</li> <li>Runs all unit and integration tests</li> <li>Builds the 'deploy' configuration of the app <ul> <li>Versions the DLLs with the current major/minor version and SVN revision, e.g. 1.2.0.423</li> <li>Moves this new build to a 'release' folder on our build server</li> <li>Removes unneeded files</li> </ul></li> <li>Updates IIS on the build server if required</li> </ul></li> </ul> <p>Then when we have verified everything is ready to go up to live/staging we run another script to:</p> <ul> <li>Run migrations on live/staging server</li> <li>MSDeploy: archive current live/staging site</li> <li>MSDeploy: sync site from build to live/staging</li> </ul> <p>It wasn't pretty getting to this stage, but it's mostly working like a charm now :D</p> <p>I'm going to try and keep this answer updated as we make changes to our process, as there seem to be several similar questions on SA now.</p>
