Automation for the people: Build Java projects with Raven
Say "nevermore" to inexpressiveness and use Ruby to build your Java applications
In the eighth installment of his "Automation for the people" series, Stelligent CTO, Paul Duvall,
demonstrates how Raven,
a build platform built on top of Ruby, leverages the power of a
full-featured programming language with the simplicity of a
build-centric Domain Specific Language.
Published by the popular IBM developerWorks, the article, "Build Java projects with Raven",
expands on the benefits of Raven including two
approaches to getting Raven installed and configured and illustrates the relationship between Raven and another build tool written in Ruby, Rake .
The "Automation for the people" series is dedicated to exploring the practical uses of automating software development processes and teaching you when and how to apply automation successfully.
