Hi guys, I'm interested in this topic, in our company we have been using mozilla tinderbox for some time (http://www.mozilla.org/tinderbox.html), in order to integrate some applications based on Gnome. We already have a public tinderbox server with projects, you can see an example here: http://tinderbox.fisterra.org/fisterra_repair/status.html In my opinion this tool is powerful but it has some lacks, it can be integrated with other mozilla tools (bonsai, bugzilla, lxr) but for instance the configuration is a mess and you have to modify perl scripts to change some behavior. Regarding the integration with jhbuild and the features Luis has pointed out, mozilla-tinderbox would require to get the ordered list of modules and maybe call each phase separately (checkout, configure, build, install, test, etc.) to have a more detailed control of the process. Also the system can distinguish the build and the test phase. I don't know any detail of buildbot so I can't compare both systems, maybe someone in the list can help with this. Anyway, we can help with this kind of tools and the integration environment regarless the selected solution, we can even ask for some resources here to carry out the compilation and use our integration server.
