Hi, after installing Continuous integration with compile and build of unit tests in our software project for each checkin (almost -- Clearcase does not support changesets) I would like to go further and test my MSI setups created with WiX.
Because I did not find too much about this topic by googling I wanted to ask if there is somebody around here testing his/her MSIs. What I would like to test are things like if it is installing at all for different flavors of Windows, if Registry stuff is written on install and removed on uninstall, if the program is able to start up and so on. What I have found: - http://remoteinstall.codeplex.com/ but designed for CruiseControl.NET, I am not sure if it would work with Jenkins, last release about 2 years ago and no new check-ins since a year - https://github.com/dblock/vmwaretasks as a pre-requisite for remote install But not much more. What I have in place are a Jenkins master and about 10 Slaves and VMWare Workstation. It would be cool if I could start up a virtual machine per OS flavor, install one or more MSIs and run some unit tests using MSTest on this machine and let Jenkins collect test results via xunit. Do you have some tips on tools I could use? Many thanks for any hints! Dirk -- Never trust a short-haired guru
