I have startet to implement Continous Integration on a project.
So far it seems like its going to save us a lot of time. We're using CruiseControl.Net and NAnt to do the actual task. Everytime we check source code in to our versioning tool, it will be compiled, analysed, testet and deployed. Everybody can see the status of the code.
We are now able to instantly know when a checkin courses our tests to fail. On top of that our solution is now automatically installed and our testers can now test how the current code behaves instead of old code. GREAT!
In the future a new release can hopefully be done by anybody because everything is compiled automatically.
what are those tools you are talking about : Nand, CruiseControl
