Integrating FitNesse with CruiseControl .NET

FIT/FitNesse | test driven development
Continuous Integration results in many builds being generated in a day. Forget the challenges of keeping up with nightly builds, we are talking hourly!
If you are just about to set up CruiseControl .NET , check out this excellent article on Joe Field's blog.
To get the best from this set-up we hope to extend our use of FitNesse (as touched on in my previous post) to take advantage of Continuous Integration.
One of our next challenges is to integrate our FitNesse tests into our continuous integration server running CruiseControl .NET. The idea being that the system tests are executed, much like the NUnit tests and reported on in the Cruise Control interface.
We have numerous ideas, ranging from NUnit tests that execute the FitNesse tests through to simple NAnt commands that will call the Fit framework.
I think that the later makes the most sense, however, it may mean a lot of individual execs to narrow down any failures to a specific test...
If anyone has done this already, feel free to say something about it here (or somewhere else)... just make sure you trackback to here using the trackback url for this post.
