Let's say 'thank you' to RubyGems project developers. > I have it running on a windows box with nnCron, the only thing I had to > add was an environment variable CERBERUS_HOME (this is for windows > only). Yeap. There is such issue with nnCron scheduler. nnCron for some reason do not pass HOME environment variable to launched process. So you need manually set up this variable in config file and Cerberus would store its data in HOME/.cerberus or setup CERBERUS_HOME variable. I will add this question to project FAQ. > Highly recommended for anyone who values having a continuous test > environment! Thanks again for warm word, Arjen. I would like to say several words about reasons of creating this tool. I am test-infected developer and I use a lot of tests in my projects. But there is should be a tool that check tests after each commit, because developers sometimes being too lazy to run tests. Also test should run on separate environment to make sure that tests not interfere with something on development environment. So Cerberus is such tool that will run tests for you. I tried to install DamageControl - and seems that this project is dead (and svn HEAD does not in production state at all). continuous_builder plugin works only on *nix OS and on machine where located your project subversion repository - it is not suited for me. So i implement Cerberus (I did it in 3 days) and use for my projects almost month. I am happy with Cerberus and encourage others to try it. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
