Builds Automation for Apex Code
I am just wondering if anyone has developed or come across as framework that would extend the unit test automation that is built into the force.com platform to add capabilities of a Continuous Integrated Testing framework to allow scheduled automated builds and produce some kind of dashboard with statistics. I am thinking something similar to what frameworks like CruiseControl can do.
So, an example scenario would be n ISV, or a System integrator that needs to develop and maintain many force.com applications. In order to promote proper usage and discipline among development teams and encourage Test-Driven Development practices - it would be good to have a tools that would run scheduled builds across multiple dev orgs or sandboxes and provide an overall statistics on test coverage, test failures etc.
I am sure this should not be very hard to build since force.com does expose the API to execute the test methods (which is used for the Ecplise IDE plug-in to display test results). The limitation of the current IDE capabilities is that you need to execute unit tests manually for each project.
