Compass Version1.1

Creating a Build Plan

On the Compass Project page, if the user is a project administrator, then the Build Plans section is displayed.  The Build Plans section contains a table of all the Build Plans that have been created for this project as well as buttons to create new build plans and delete existing ones. An example of what the Build Plans table section looks like is displayed here:

As you can see there is a row for each build plan that has been created with the name of the build plan, a Button to edit and schedule the build plan, and a checkbox.  When a user clicks the 'Create Build' button they are prompted for the name of the new build plan and what output file or directory should be saved with the build plan every time it is executed.  Both the name and output files can be changed later if need be.  The user is then taken to the Build Editor page. 

Once the user has entered the name of their new build plan they are taken to the Build Editor page.  This build editor page first appears like this:

As you can see from the image, There are two sections to the build editor, the Build Steps section and the Build Configuration section.  The next 3 sections of the documentation cover Build Steps, starting with how to add build steps.
