When you work with Azure (DevOps) Pipelines and use Azure Repos (Git) in combination with Git submodules, then there are a few things that you need to take into account if you want to use those submodules in your build pipeline(s) an if you want those pipelines to successfully 😉 I'm writing this here because we have …

In previous posts, I wrote about migrating builds to TeamCity and after that back to Azure DevOps . Next to that, I talked about "setting up an Enterprise Cake build framework" and getting Cake to work in Azure DevOps (artifacts) to make those migrations easier in an enterprise context, where a lot of build …

My last few posts have been about Cake build and Azure DevOps and in this post I will again talk about those 2. This time I will talk about running Cake in an Azure Pipeline and having it work with Azure Artifacts . What? Azure Artifacts Azure Artifacts can be seen as a private repository for your reusable assets …

Last week I wrote about two related topics that can be seen as a basis for this post: (1) Cake in the enterprise which is about building your enterprise applications with Cake (at scale) and what you need to do to make it manageable and (2) Migrating your builds to Azure DevOps pipelines which is about migrating …

Today, 1.5 years later, we have a set up a stable (unit test supported) build process that supports multiple …

I'm in the process om migrating a whole bunch of builds from TeamCity to Azure DevOps and the entire process is automated. (I'm writing a blogpost on this, stay tuned if you are interested in this). Today, one of the builds that I'm migrating, gave me an error when I did a test. It struck me a bit as "a strange …

A few years ago, we migrated all our builds out of practical considerations from (at the time) TFS to JetBrains TeamCity. The main reason for us was that the support for XAML based builds in TFS was about to end... The main advantage for us, when using those XAML templates was the (rather) extensive templating support. …

I've been wanting to write this post for a while (a few years) now and I never took the time. At some point I just thought that it wasn't relevant anymore, but since I'm working on a project in a similar context and I feel that the need still does exist, I could not refrain myself and write this thing down. If you …
