DbUp is a great tool to manage database migration scripts as I explained in the past. For more than two years we used it in multiple projects and never needed more than the setup example from the documentation. However, in the case of an error this snipped isn’t the best configuration and needs manual work to clean-up your database. Let’s look on the underlying problem and how one can fix it.
Using a local build server with Visual Studio Team Services (VSTS) is not that complicated. The build agent and a community edition of Visual Studio is all you need to get started. However, there is a little catch with this setup: You don’t get test coverage for your unit tests.
This is my list of little tools and helpers that I install on all my devices. It was inspired by Scott Hanselman's Ultimate Developer and Power Users Tool List and some tools may overlap. Nevertheless, there are plenty of differences and I'm sure that you will find one or more gems that simplify your developer life. If you know a tool that is missing and is a must-have, please leave a comment with a link to that tool.
