Jenkins, MSBuild and SonarQube

I had the challenge to set up code analysis on a codebase that is built on Jenkins as a build server. My team decided to use SonarQube as a tool for static analysis in order to detect bugs, code smells, security vulnerabilities and find some areas of improvement in our code, which by the way is written in C#. What I had as available tools on the Jenkins server (installed in my workplace environment) were the following ones: MSBuild - for compiling and building the code; SonarScanner for MSBuild - for static analysis; vstest.console.exe - for running the unit tests; CodeCoverage.exe - for analyzing the output of the execution of the unit tests and calculate the code coverage and transform it into readable XML format; Although I tried to install all of them including Jenkins server on my local machine and instead of CodeCoverage.exe tool which is available only with Visual Studio Enterprise edition I used dotCover from JetBrains, but the steps are similar and that is a story o...

How to Think Like Leonardo da Vinci: Seven Steps to Genius Every Day

SubSonic Active Record

SubSonic is A Super High-fidelity Batman Utility Belt that works up your Data Access (using Linq in 3.0), throws in some much-needed utility functions, and generally speeds along your dev cycle. SubSonic was one of my favorite tools in my early days of professional programming. It was an ancestor of the ORM tools, practically it was an ORM that could generate the entire Data Access Layer knowing only the connection string from the referenced database. It was magic for me in those days. But after that came Entity Framework from Microsoft and the rest is history. Lately, I've been looking through my old projects and it reminded me of my old passion for this tool. Then I've 'googled' if there are some updates, and the only thing I've found was that it has been moved on GitHub
