JetBrains Releases TeamCity 5.0
PRAGUE, Dec. 4 /PRNewswire-AsiaNet/ --
- Newest Major Release Adds Amazon EC2 Cloud Integration, Boosts Scalability and Further Enhances
User Experience
JetBrains(R), the creators of intelligent, productivity-enhancing development tools, announced today the
public availability of TeamCity 5.0, the company's award-winning distributed build management and
continuous integration tool.
TeamCity offers easy setup and delivers out-of-the-box continuous unit testing, sophisticated code quality
analysis, and early reporting on build problems. It has a gentle learning curve, so you can quickly improve your
release management practices by gradually adopting its advanced features and capabilities.
"Every day we meet more and more customers with large build infrastructures and very high environmental
diversity," - says Pavel Sher, TeamCity Project Manager. "There is definitely a strong demand for an
extremely scalable, robust, and ready continuous integration solution – and that's exactly what the latest
TeamCity release is designed to provide. At the same time, we're still going strong with end-user features for
developers, and were able to add a great deal of usability improvements and an enhanced user experience."
TeamCity 5.0 brings a huge potential improvement in scalability by reinforcing its distributed build grid with
Amazon EC2 cloud integration. Features such as build configuration templates, project archiving, and
backup&restore eliminate unnecessary redundancy and hassle in configuring large build infrastructures. To
make TeamCity feel at home everywhere and benefit developer productivity, we've added issue tracker
integration, better support for Maven, Command line tool for personal builds, and many other features.
Key features in this release include:
- Suport for Amazon EC2: Take advantage of cloud computing with
TeamCity by putting build agents on Amazon EC2 cloud with on-demand
image starting and on-idle stopping.
- Issue tracker integration with JetBrains YouTrack, JIRA and
Bugzilla out of the box, plus an API for the integration plugins for
other systems.
- Maven support improvements, including simplified build
configuration creation from POM file, and build triggering on Maven
artifacts change.
- Build configuration templates for eliminating redundancy in build
configurations settings.
- Project archiving for putting no-longer-active projects out of
sight.
- Command line tool for running Personal builds on server without
IDE integration.
- Backup & Restore added to simplify TeamCity maintenance, and the
migration tool re-implemented.
Other improvements include:
- Now you can view the status of a change across all build
configurations on a single page.
- Failure responsibility feature has been advanced to cover not
only builds, but also individual test failures.
- Various actions made by TeamCity users are now stored in the
Audit log which can be browsed from the web UI.
