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.

[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, SVN, and Perforce. It is also known to be used in conjunction with Monotone.
