[FLOW3-general] Jenkins and TYPO3.Surf

[Sebastian Kurfürst]

Hey Jacob,

Do you have Surf running already? On the following site there is the
first basic introduction:

http://git.typo3.org/FLOW3/Packages/TYPO3.Surf.git?a=blob;f=Documentation/Guide/Index.rst;h=cd4a95f880ddfc9c840103b0b5d39d74efe94d39;hb=HEAD

You can do as you want. Christopher often runs it locally, but I run it
on my Jenkins server.

Correct, I personally only use Surf for deployment, triggered through a
"run shell script" task on Jenkins. That's part of vanilla Jenkins. As I
dislike ant, I don't use it :-)

For running the tests, you can just pick the plugins you want.
