Configuring Build Steps

When creating a build configuration it is important to configure the sequence of build steps to be executed. Each build step is represented by a Build Runner and provides integration with a specific build or test tool. You can add as many build steps to your build configuration as needed. For example, call a NAnt script before compiling VS solutions.

Build steps are invoked sequentially. If a build step fails the rest are not executed. A build step failure can be caused by:

• A build process has returned exit code other than 0, and Fail build if condition "build process exit code is not zero" is enabled in the Configuring General Settings of build configuration. (This behaviour doesn't apply to NUnit, MSTest, FxCop, Duplicates (.NET) runners).
