SuccessStories

There are Buildbots installed all over the world. If you've installed one, please add it to this list (or drop me a note and I'll add it), especially if it is publicly visible. The icons in the following table provide links to both the buildbot's Waterfall status page and each project's home page.

PBP is a web testing tool that (as I understand it) behaves as an HTTP client and makes sure a web application responds to queries correctly. With this BuildStep,you can incorporate PBP tests into your compile/build/test cycle.
