This is an example of a test build running on a Linux environment. Edit to suit your own build environment. My example is using Ant. There are extraneous files, but these might give you an idea of what gets created.

The following files should be edited:

stillBrokenTemplate
templast (with the last changelist # last tested)
testCompileErrorTemplate
testCompile.ini (with the last changelist # last tested)
successTemp.py
testCompileError.py

I wrote a wrapper called "testRun" to check to see if testCompile is running. I set up a cronjob to run every two minutes. If testCompile is already running, it does not start another instance.
