15 tips for better ANT build

I saw this on DZone this afternoon where Dan from UK is presenting 15 valuable tips for ANT. We use ANT quite extensively at work and I have been looking for ways to improve several ANT builds. Here are few of our use cases

  • Unit testing of CFC and CFM file using CFUnit
  • Acceptance testing for running Selenium test
  • Testing/Production server deployment.
  • various backup processes for databases, files etc....

Dan has also mentioned a free tool named yWorks ANT Explorer which seems quite interesting. It is available as an Eclipse plugin as well as a Stand alone version
