[Mono-devel-list] Automated builds

[Fawad Halim]

Yes, we can chain as many commands as we wish. The steps for a 
particular target are written like:

steps.append((Compile, {'workdir': 'mcs',
    'command': 'make',
    'flunkOnFailure': 1}))

(in the mcs directory, execute the 'make' command, and if it returns 
non-zero, think it's a build failure. The default buildbot comes with a 
couple of Processes (CVS, SVN, shell command, etc.). It's possible to 
define others and whether they should be considered critical to the 
build or not (e.g. make run-test is critical, make doc is not).

One thing I forgot to mention is that it has the ability to be triggered 
on CVS commits using CVSToys.
