Asunto: Re: [OzTFS] Database Integration in Builds

 

I've done a few projects now with Continuous Integration including rebuilding the database from scripts each time.

It is really great in a big team where you do this because it enforces that people always put their changes in the stored procudure scripts, table creation scripts, data generation scripts etc. rather than making changes directly to their own developer instance of the database and then wondering why no one else can get an environment up and running.

It also means that it is really easy to get someone up and running in a development environment because you just run the scripts locally. We all know how much of a pain it is hunting things down to build a project don't we!

I use CruiseControl.Net at the moment with NANT calling the MS SQL command line. What way were you looking to execute the scripts in TFS? We found the tricky thing was firing the scripts in the correct order due to dependencies on other stored procedures etc. and obviously running TABLE creates before VIEWS etc.

Be great to see what others do,
Jeremy Thake

Hi Christian,

 

Cool. I like the idea of having a suite of ordered tests which build up the database incrementally, including adding schema, sample data, schema, sample data. So each unit test would represent a new version of the database.

Hi Mitch
We have just started this project. The idea is create builds where code and database are created from source control and the database is deployed as part of the out put.

 

We want to be able to create releases where the database schema and code are a part of the release and enable us to always get a working copy of the database. We have used Speed SQL pro for database source control, but are looking at the TFS Team Database edition as replacement.

 

While we are waiting to see what TFS Database can do for us :), we are creating a custom build task, which collects SQL statement form Source control and creates the database.

Hi Christian,

I'm interested to hear your experiences around integrating database
operations into your build. I kind of like the idea of the build
bringing everything it needs with it and only giving it things like a
connection string to get started. Whereby it builds the database up from
scratch.

Hi again,

What I thought would be a good way to kick of the list is to start
with a round of introductions. So if you just want to reply to the
list with a bit about yourself, that would be great!

(I'll even give you a template to start with, just copy and paste)

Name: Grant Holliday

Location: Canberra, Australia

Blog: http://www.holliday.com.au/

Employer: Readify (www.readify.net)

TFS experience:
* Installation
* Extending TFS
* Migrating from SourceSafe
* TFS MSSCCI Provider
* Reporting

Current projects:
I'm currently working for a large australian government department and
migrating their 3Gb SourceSafe database into TFS. They are still on
1.1, so I've been using the MSSCCI Provider in anger and I've been
building a web-wrapper around the TFS API to facility user permissions
for the 300+ developers they have.

Current goals:
* I'd like to learn more about reporting using the TFS cube
* I'm looking to become MCT certified so that I can deliver some TFS
training
* And of course, building a community :)

Favorite TFS tools:
* The new TFS power tools are my favourite. tfpt.exe history
/followbranches is neat
http://blogs.msdn.com/bharry/archive/2006/09/07/744993.aspx

* I have found the TFS Sidekicks from Attrice is handy for
viewing/deleting workspaces in a large developer environment.
http://www.attrice.info/cm/tfs/

* and of course, my own little tools (TFS Bug Snapper,
TfsDownloadFile, TfsGroupMemberImport, TfsListProjectAreas) - all of
which are invaluable while migrating this mammoth VSS database.

So that's me, how about you?
