msbuild.exe location on windows 8 with VS2012

Question

I'm trying to set up a Jenkins CI server to deploy a .NET 4.5 app but I cant for the life of me find the msbuild exe on my windows 8 machine running visual studio 2012. Any ideas?

Make sure that you have installed the corresponding .Net framework. You can find the build.exe by following this sample path

C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v4.5\MSBuild.exe
