After asking why the project I'm on didn't have one; figuring out what to use and getting it set up was added to my todo list. I've got a few higher priority items to do first; but while it's on my mind figured I might as well ask the hive mind for suggestions now.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

My recommendation would be to use a computer. Hope this helps.

Gee thanks. I'd've never figured that bit out on my own. Already started on the gin for the day I take it....

It's the joy of sharing. I like to share everything. Except my gin. And all my stuff.
But I'll share everything else.

I'm not sure about that.
I heard they are hard to work.

Some modern ones are a bit temperamental, but you basically switch it on and leave it in the room that needs heating.

If you haven't already, you might want to look at this[^] list. I don't have any experience with a CI server though, so I can't recommend one.
However, I will ask my client, he may have some suggestions.

Big lists are easy to find. I was hoping for some form of "I've used X and it was really easy" or "Y took several days to figure out why it didn't work and has proved highly brittle even after initial setup."
Having used CC.net, I'm leaning toward their ruby version as being at least superficially the devil I know.

Jenkins[^]? It has a number of plugins for Ruby development (And .NET/Android/iOS/etc).
Getting information off the Internet is like taking a drink from a fire hydrant.

So, a fellow I know who has done a lot of RoR recommends http://jenkins-ci.org/[^] if you're ok with hosting in your hardware. He says he's worked with it for quite a while and likes it a lot.
He's also currently evaluating several cloud-based CI's for places that don't want to host their own server, but doesn't have any recommendations yet.
[edit] and the "fellow" isn't Brisingr Aerowing. I noticed he suggested Jenkins as well, after I posted this message![/edit]

Might give that a try next. CC.rb apparently only just works on *nix (and *nix doesn't just work on our admins-are-stuck-in-the-past network). It has a dependency on openSSL, and while I eventually managed to get what appeared to be success using gem install ... to build the gem in question, bundle and cc.rb refuses to find the result.

Better link to just the Iron Man / Lego stuff: Is Iron Man made of lego?[^] (This is linked to from the original post link, but right at the bottom)

There's so much other class stuff in here that I thought I'd leave it at the top level so that people can browse around the whole site.

Gentlemen of a certain age will remember her.
She was stunningly beautiful.
And now no longer with us.
Another one succumbed to cancer at too young an age.

So, last week I decided to look at learning some of them thar new web teknolgy. After lengthy research [10 minutes with Google and a check what the popular free hosting allows] decided on:
Ruby on Rails
Bit late to the party I know, but there you goes.
Also, thanks to Mark and Arrow as I was as yet undecided on an IDE, RubyMine is on its way in.
[edit]
Just realised that RubyMine is not fully free, it better be good.

"popular free hosting"
Brrrrrr!
There is a phrase to send a shudder down one's spine!
Free hosting is generally worth exactly what you paid for it...have you considered Arvixe[^]? Not expensive (one pub G&T a month) and I think they support Ruby (never tried though) judging by this: http://forum.arvixe.com/smf/general/arvixe-asp-vps-ruby-on-rails-setup/[^]

as long as it's just for testing nothing speaks against free hosting

Welcome to the party! I joined this party just before a couple of months! For a free IDE try RadRails[^], it's pretty good! and for free hosting I use heroku short intro[^]!
Cheers,

Scots vote for independence this year, but as I look at Alex Salmond and Nicola Sturgeon I can't help but think there is something very fishy about them.
