Major release of TeamCity adding additional features and enhancements to TeamCity 4.0

TeamCity 5.0 is a major release of and adds additional features and enhancements to .

What's New in TeamCity 5.0

Enhancements include:

Issue Tracker integration

Issues are now first class citizens in TeamCity. Out of the box TeamCity integrates with Jira, Bugzilla and Jetbrains own tracker YouTrack. Note that integration with YouTrack is bi-directional. YouTrack shows TeamCity related information for issues with links to TeamCity builds and details about changes included in the build.

Per-test responsibility

It is now possible to assign or take responsibility for a single test. Note that responsibility taken for a test is taken within the whole project.

Project Archiving

You can now easily archive no longer active projects. Archived projects will be shown on the separate tab in the Administration area, their build configurations will be paused and changes collecting for their VCS roots will be stopped (if VCS roots are not shared with active projects). Builds however can be triggered manually, and project/build configuration settings can be edited.

Build Configuration Templates

Templates goal is to remove duplication from the build configuration settings. To do so you create a template (template actually has the same settings as regular build configuration) and then associate any number of build configurations with this template. Change in the template will affect all of the build configurations associated with it.

Support for Amazon EC2

Take advantage of cloud computing with TeamCity by putting Build Agents on Amazon EC2. After your Build Agents' AMIs (Amazon Machine Images) are registered, the TeamCity server will account for those virtual machines in its build scheduling and will automatically do a suspend/resume job on them, based on the load and build queue status.

Java and .NET Coverage

Coverage support was significantly improved for both Java and .NET.

How can I speed up our TeamCity builds?

Our repository has grown in size quite a bit in recent months and TeamCity builds have now become seriously slow. A lot of the bulk comes from installation files and other non-code, non-essential (for build anyhow) things that people have checked…

I think I'm missing a valuable piece of understanding with TeamCity 5.0. Why is there a separate build runner for FxCop? I prefer that my build server run everything, at once (compile, run unit tests, FxCop, etc). The problem is, I don't see how to…
