For small websites ( upto 3 - 4 VMs ) I use fabric. I define small modular tasks that get executed in AWS EC2. I wrote a bunch of scripts around a year before for the same: https://github.com/gargdeepak/django-cloud Its not tested for quite some time and should be read well before being used.
For larger deployments I would prefer Puppet (for non AWS deployment) or AWS Elastic Beanstalk. It allows easy management and change in the deployment configurations. Both of the above can be used in a TDD way such that after every step, you would know why exactly the deployment is incomplete / failed and how exactly the output should look like.
