= Welcome to the Bitten Project =

''Bitten'' is a [http://www.python.org/ Python]-based framework for collecting various software metrics via continuous integration. It builds on Trac to provide an integrated web-based user interface.

== Users Guide ==

If you want to install Bitten, please read the [wiki:BittenInstall installation guide].

== Design Documents ==

First, read the [wiki:WhitePaper white paper] to learn about the motivation for this project, and the overall goals.

There are also pages discussing the design of individual parts of the system. These are a work in progress:

 * BuildConfigurations
 * BuildOutputProcessing
 * BuildRecipes
 * DataStorage
 * MasterSlaveProtocol
 * ObjectModel
 * SlaveConfiguration

See also TracRefactorings for things that need to be changed in Trac itself.
