BuildBot is a software development continuous integration tool which automates the compile/test cycle required to validate changes to the project code base. It began as an alternative to the Mozilla project's Tinderbox which is easier to install and maintain.
[edit] Implementation
BuildBot is written in Python on top of the Twisted libraries.
[edit] SCM Support
As of May 2006 the self-test logic covers SCM integration with CVS, Arch, Bazaar, Darcs, and SVN. It is also known to be used in conjunction with Monotone.
