Wait until Jenkins installs itself as a Window service Enter path to Jenkins service home (e.g. #JENKINS VS TEAMCITY INSTALL#
From Dashboard: Manage Hudson → Install as Windows Service.The instructions for that vary by platform, but under Windows it is just as simple as following links from dashboard: To finish the installation of Jenkinbs you need to install it as a service on your host machine. To be completely honest, these steps will only run Jenkins instance and as soon as you kill the process, or shut down your computer, Hudson will go down.

Download the installer for free Professional version from JetBrains - 301 Mb. NET projects, to really try both out, I need to install them side-by side. Although there are cloud offerings out there that offer CI server configurations, the requirement to build. No strings attached, no limitations, no hidden agendas. It has a vibrant community of core and extension developers, rich set of plug-ins that let it do almost anything that a CI build server needs to do.Īs an OSS project, it is completely free. Jenkins Jenkins (originally called Hudson, until Oracle botched it with the community and got renamed) is an open source CI server implementation that started out as a hobby project by Kohsuke Kawaguchi while he was working as Sun, but has now grown into one of the most popular CI server implementation in the Java community. With the product you get to use up to 3 build agents and you can purchase more as you develop a need for these.Ģ0 users and 20 build configurations sounds plenty fine for our case, so this is no problem at the moment. Professional edition is free and is limited to 20 user accounts and 20 build configurations. JetBrains offeres it as a Professional and Enterprise editions.

I would like to point out that this post is full of personal opinions, by no means impartial as comparisons go and should as such be taken with a fairly grain of salt. I settled on Jenkins and TeamCity as the two major contenders. NET project, I needed a solution that would run on Windows and build. Adding to the mix that first project to hit our CI server would be. The next alternative I had had any exposure to was Hudson ( now renamed to Jenkins) and JetBrains's TeamCity, which I had heard a lot of nice things about. Having had extensive exposure to CruiseControl, I immediately discarded it as I've developed a particular dislike for this product. One of the decisions I had to make and implement was selecting and setting up a CI server for continuous building and deployment of our next product. As some of my closest friends already know, I decided to bite the bullet and switched jobs recently.Īs the new company I now work for is really small compared to the one I left, it also means that as a developer I am also involved in more than just programming.
