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 a light-weight alternative to the Mozilla project's Tinderbox, and is now used at Mozilla, Chromium, WebKit and many other projects.[4][5]

Implementation

Buildbot is written in Python on top of the Twisted libraries.

SCM support

As of March 2013, in version 0.8.7p1, Buildbot supports SCM integration with CVS, Bazaar, Darcs, SVN, Perforce, Mercurial, Git, Monotone, Repo, and BitKeeper.[6]
