Additional tasks for VSTS / TFS Build.

Most of the build and test infrastructure is copied from Microsoft's VSTS Tasks.

Currently, there is only one task:

Status

Build & Test
Win Windows Build status

Build

Fast pass

To build and test everything, simply use:

 build-full.cmd

You will find packaged tasks in _packages\tasks.zip, from where you can deploy/upload them.

Manual steps

Once, install dependencies:

 npm install

To increment all task's patch level - required to allow upload of a new version to VSTS/TFS:

 node make.js bump

Build and test:

 npm run build
 npm test

Build a single task:

 node make.js build --task RunOpenCover
 node make.js test --task RunOpenCover

Deploy a Build Task

One time preparation

Use the tfx-cli tool to upload and generally manage build tasks for VSTS or an on premise TFS instance.

Install the tfx tool by npm install -g tfx-cli.

Afterwards make sure you login to your TFS / VSTS instance of choice, for example:

 tfx logon -u http://localhost:8080/tfs/MyCollection --token <token>

(You can create a token from your "Security" settings in TFS/VSTS). I recommend setting the TFX_TRACE environment variable to 1 for all your work, because otherwise the tfx utility is a little to quiet, especially and even when errors occur (e.g. a login fails).

Deployment

Deploy a local build

To deploy the result of a local build (e.g. from cloning this repo):

 tfx build tasks upload --task.path .\_build\Tasks\RunOpenCoverTask

Make sure to update at least the patch version in your task.json everytime you redeploy a new version (e.g. via node make.js bump).

Deploy from a package

To deploy the result of a release's tasks.zip:

 7za x -o %TEMP%\tasks tasks.zip
 tfx build tasks upload --task.path %TEMP%\tasks\RunOpenCoverTask
