Hi Daniel,

Great tutorial. Running Flex Cover and especially integrating this into the=
 build is a real PITA.
Flexmojos (Maven Plugin for building Flex applications) does exactly what y=
ou are doing, but instead of using Ant it uses Maven.
(Ok the order is slightly different and I am currently working on implement=
ing the Mobile packaging)
Here some special efforts were put into making code-coverage availalbe. Eve=
ntually this could serve as an inspiration to your ANT build.

Betreff: Continuous Integration for Flex (Mobile but not only) apps

Hi folks
I set up a Continuous Integration process for a Mobile app created with Fle=
x/Air. It was not an easy task for me, because I did this for the first tim=
e. Since there may be other people like me struggling to do the same, I tho=
ught it would be worth sharing my experience with you guys (especially beca=
use I got some helpful hints from some of you).

The process involves

*         Compiling the Code...

*         Packaging for Android and iOS...

*         Unit Testing...

*         Creating documentation...

*         Static Code analysis (LOC, languages used, code commentation, ...=
)

... as well as some things I found useful to know (e.g. handling Native Ext=
ensions). Unfortunately I haven't found a way to check test coverage (FlexC=
over seems to be outdated somehow), so if any of you have done this in a si=
milar environment I would be VERY interested to know how you did it.

I created a documentation where all the steps are thoroughly described, so =
that even a beginner (like I was) could do it. You can find it under:
http://www.tiefenauer.info/ci-for-flex-mobile-applications-part-0-the-setup=
/

If you have any comments or improvements, please do not hesitate to add the=
m under the corresponding post!

Hope this may help some other poor soul setting up CI for Flex in the futur=
e.

Thanks again for your help.

Daniel
