Just some random bits that may be useful ...
IIRC, an irc user Al2O3 has been setting up some type of automated
testing using some scripting language and vmware. I'm not sure what
became of it though.
There's also http://dev.haiku-os.org/ticket/4763 which mentions a
script to test the ABI.
At some point, Coverity was set up for doing additional source code testing.
I'm also working on a custom continuous integration solution for
monitoring source changes :
http://dev.osdrawer.net/projects/haikubuildomatic I'm working on
branches/rewrite2, which will eventually allow multiple computers to
run BOM and report their results to a central website
