Developers love nothing more than complaining about how long their builds take, sometimes their complaints are justified and sometimes they’re not. Even worse sometimes performance degrades slowly over time and no one notices.
To better quantify how long builds are taking I created a Build Performance report that is emailed to me monthly. This report gives the minimum, maximum, and average build duration (in minutes) for each of our main build definitions over the last 12 months.
Below is an example of that report and you can download the Build Performance Report Definition for SQL Server 2005 Reporting Services from here. If you want to restrict the build definitions that are included you can add an additional condition to the WHERE clause:
AND (
[Build].[Build Type] LIKE ‘DEV_._’
OR [Build].[Build Type] = ‘Main’
)
This report was made better thanks to SSW’s Rules to Better MS SQL Reporting Services.

[...] Un tableau de bord prêt à l’emploi pour Team Foundation Server Le lien ci-dessous vous permettra de créer un ensemble de graphiques basé sur une requête de Work Items de Team Foundation Server. Le tableau de bord du chef de projet en quelques minutes. Ensuite les données sont rafraîchies à la demande : Nouveaux Bugs ouverts, résolus et fermés par mois Nouveaux Bugs par état Vélocité de correction Bugs Backlog Et beaucoup d’autres données ! Le lien vers le post original : http://blogs.msdn.com/teams_wit_tools/archive/2009/02/12/building-lightweight-dashboards-using-excel.aspx Ce rapport est téléchargeable et vous apporte les informations concernant le nombre de Build par semaine, par jours, les durées d’exécution… Les données extraites proviennent de mon serveur TFS de démo : le temps moyen d’exécution d’une compilation est de 3 minutes. Ce qui est déjà long lorsqu’on fait une présentation ! Le lien vers l’exemple de rapport : http://blogs.teamsystemnotes.com/2009/03/19/monitoring-build-performance/ [...]
