This past weekend, I finished my port of the Hudson Xvnc plugin to the FlexUnit Ant task. I’m hoping this will help those who don’t have access to the plugin, or dont’ use Hudson, but want to execute headless builds using FlexUnit and Xvnc. In addition to this work, I’ve added a few wiki pages to the newly launched FlexUnit.org’s wiki instance. A break down of the all the features available in the FlexUnit Ant task can be found @ http://docs.flexunit.org/index.php?title=Ant_Task. Additionally, to see the Ant task in action in a few variations, check out the FlexUnit4SampleCIProject on Github; I also show a basic POM using Flexmojos and FlexUnit4. For a general culmination of FlexUnit and continuous integration experience for running headless builds, check out http://docs.flexunit.org/index.php?title=Continuous_Integration_Support. Hopefully this information can help to prevent some people from experiencing the painstaking lessons I had to go through.

Next I’m off to update the FlexUnit 4 CI builds to work with versioning as well as integrate the new FlexPMD (CPD, Metrics) to get some more sexy Hudson reporting going on. If you’re interested in seeing the latest rendition of our CI process, check out http://flexunit.digitalprimates.net.
