Build vNext in VSO and TFS 2015 Richard Banks DEV341

Why?

Common questions… How do I run a script after I build the solution? Can I integrate with XYZ? Can I build Android or iOS? Why do I need a current VS to edit a build definition?

Common questions… Where’s the raw build log? How do I integrate test and coverage results? OMGWTF!? Have you open a XAML definition?!! How do I keep all my agents up to date? Why do all the binaries get dumped in a single folder?

Team Build is dead. Long live Team Build Team Build is dead*! Long live Team Build! * no, not actually dead – just renamed to XAML Build

Build Tasks No XAML No MSBuild Cross Platform

Architectural changes

Co-exists with XAML builds The physical controller is no longer needed Collections use agent pools. Pools defined at the deployment level Agents are updated automatically, via xcopy deployment

Improved Security Each build in it’s own process. No more hung file locks if the build crashes Each build is given a limited time, limited scope access token. Devs can’t write a unit test to access things they shouldn’t.

Extensibility

Scripts before Tasks Generally, you shouldn’t need to add a task. Use tasks to avoid repetition of scripts.

Gaps

Just a few gaps Gated Builds (eta 2015.2) Labelling and tagging sources (2015.1) Throttling (i.e. no more than x min) Client side workspace mapping with TFVC (2015.1) Build chaining

Wrap up

Key Thoughts Build vNext (Team Build) is the future. XAML Builds still work, but start transitioning existing builds. Do you need to write custom tasks or scripts? Extend out from build to better understand technical debt.
