I need to put together a build/test system for J2EE projects. The only products I've decided on are GNU/Arch for the source repository, and Ant for the builds. I still need the bug-tracking, version control, build management, and test component.
I really liked CMVC when I was contracting at IBM. You could specify that you only wanted to build specific bugs fixes and it would take care of everything.
For example, if I wanted to build only a fix for bug 23875, I could run a report which would say that files Foo and Bar were checked in under this bug. It would also report that Bar was updated by bug 23799 before the fix for 23875, so I'll need to pull in that bug fix also, which encompasses files Bar and Baz. You can also specify in a bug that you have a corequisite, in case you are using new interfaces that were introduced by another checkin.
Are there any open source products that will fill this middle ground between the repository and the build, and include or tie in with bug-tracking? I also need automated test to run after the build.
 
Don't get me started about those stupid light bulbs.
