Glad to see it worked - can you point where the docs were wrong? > > Now I'm trying to run the integration tests.

Newer SDKs are supported - though new SDKs still need to be listed in the Azure plugin (we have up to v2.0 in azure-maven-plugin/src/main/resources/META-INF/npanday/executable-plugins.xml).

It's down to these: Failed tests: testMsBuildWithProjectReferences(npanday.its.NPANDAY_459_MsBuildProjectReferencesTest): Expected file was not found: f:\hudson\hudson-slave\workspace\NPanday-it-runner\npanday-it-runner\target\test-classes\NPANDAY_459_MSBuildProjectReferences\ConsoleApplication1\.references\test\test-snapshot-1.0-SNAPSHOT\test-snapshot.dll testCompilerWithArgs(npanday.its.NPandayIT0038CompilerWithArgsTest): Found unexpected class It0002 in assembly f:\hudson\hudson-slave\workspace\NPanday-it-runner\npanday-it-runner\target\test-classes\NPandayIT0038CompilerWithArgsTest\target\NPandayITCompilerWithArgs.dll Tests in error: testClassLibWithWebRefInstall(npanday.its.NPandayIT0037ClassLibWithWebRefInstallTest): Exit code was non-zero: 1; command line and log = (..)

We use that for the wix plugin, but the others are across multiple things and use the same tools as the Maven integration tests.

Definitely valuable (along the lines of what the nuget importer is angling towards). The addin actually does this to some extent, and has the advantage of being in C# so it can read the assembly information. That might be something to extract into a command line tool. - Brett -- Brett Porter @brettporter http://brettporter.wordpress.com/ http://au.linkedin.com/in/brettporter
