Continuous Integration Rules

There are seven practices that we've found work well for individuals and teams running CI on a project.

  • Commit code frequently

  • Don't commit broken code

  • Fix broken builds immediately

  • Write automated developer tests

  • All tests and inspections must pass

Installing IIS on Windows XP

If you attempt to install IIS on Windows XP SP2, and you use a CD from Windows XP (pre-SP2), you may receive a message that setup cannot copy adsutil.vbs.
