NCover Reporting in Bamboo

Benjamin Rice

So Bamboo Reporting allows me to select NCover reports as a custom report type, but all the documentation says about NCover anywhere is "DO not select this ['NCover Output will be produced'] option" in "Configuring Miscellaneous Settings for a Job". So has anyone out there implemented NCOver with a Bamboo build? Did you do it by adding it as a task in your MSBuild (or NAnt) script? We are movign from CCNet and had CCNet run NCover as a task. I don't see that anyone has done a plugin for NCover for Bamboo yet, so thinking that we will need to run it as the MSBuild task (or find a bunch of extra time to create our own plugin).

Hi benrice,

Recently, an NCover customer who was using Bamboo figured out how to display an NCover report by trial-and-error and ingenuity -- as you observed, the Bamboo documentation isn't much help, and NCover doesn't offer a plug-in, so he figured it out on his own.

Based on the steps he described to me, I put together a short knowledge base article that may help you:
