Using MS Build to deploy after tests

votes

I have a web project structured the following way:

WebSite WebSite.test

In the test project, I have all the unit tests (using Microsoft test framework). In the WebSite project I have a target to deploy the site using MSDeploy, the MSDeployPublish target, and DeployOnBuild=true. I then run this build using Jenkins. The problem is that using this setup, the site will get deployed before it's tested.

I could add another build step in Jenkins, so that the entire solution is built first, then the deploy projects are run. However, I would like for it all to be in one step. Is this at all possible?

I've having the same issue but with vanilla TFS builds; I'd love to see a solution! – David Peters

This is probably a bug in Jenkins. See this bug (or this one). See comments for possible workarounds.
