Automated Build Studio turns every computer into a powerful build server, enabling centralized build management and remote control over your automated build processes. Through a secure and intuitive web interface and desktop clients, you can view the current status of your latest builds, run builds by a single click or schedule builds to run periodically, submit build requests, access the complete build history and logs and analyze the build metrics using a variety of charts. And all of this comes out-of-the-box with the Automated Build Studio package, at no extra cost!
Wide Range of Client Applications
You can control the remote build server via a rich web interface:
From within your local Automated Build Studio instance:
And from a Windows Sidebar gadget that is included in Automated Build Studio’s package:
You can also create custom client applications using Automated Build Studio’s ActiveX API.
Access to Build Servers from in Your Domain and on the Internet
Desktop client applications can connect to the Automated Build Studio server via RPC (remote procedure calls) or Web service (SOAP). The former provides faster access to the build server within the local network, the latter allows you to access any Automated Build Studio-powered build server on the Internet.
Group-Based and Per-Build Permissions
Administrators can control the users’ ability to interact with the Automated Build Studio Server through group-based permissions that cover various aspects of the server functionality. Individual users and user groups can also be assigned per-build permissions, allowing only them to interact with the specified automated build process.
Active Directory (LDAP) Integration
Automated Build Studio Server features Active Directory (LDAP) integration to streamline registration and authentication of your existing Active Directory user accounts on the automated build server.
Automated Build Notifications
Automated Build Studio Server keeps the users informed with the latest status of the builds, providing a variety of events to be notified about and a choice of notification mediums: e-mail, MSN or ICQ instant messaging. This way, team members always know when a new build arrives, and developers are immediately notified on broken builds and can fix the problems quickly.
