Buildbot

Buildbot is a software development continuous integration tool which automates the compile or 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 by Python,[6] WebKit,[7] LLVM,[8] Blender,[9] ReactOS,[10] and many other projects.[11]
