Welcome to CruiseControl.NET - Confluence
CruiseControl.Net is an automated continuous integration server, which is useful for agile development.
As far as I can see from my initial survey, you put together scripts which define an "integration" build (ie: building all your software, maybe run some tests), and give that to CruiseControl. It then monitors your source control system for changes, and every time it sees a change it grabs the latest code and runs the script, then notifies you of any problems. It also seems to be able to label the source control repository if the build is successful, and I assume you get nice builds out the other end.
I really need to try this out, it's a bloody excellent idea if it works well.
Oh, and did I forget to mention that it is open source? Lol!
