You can use makefiles, ant scripts or shell scripts for your build process. You haven't told us about the source files. Are they c/c++, java or something else ?

If they are java source files, then you are better off with ant scripts. The same ant script can be in used in Windows and Linux. If the source files are c/c++, then makefiles are the best. But the makefiles would differ for Windows and Linux.

Shell scripts work well on Linux. But to make them work on Windows you would need the MKS Toolkit or Cygwin.


For automating your test process, I believe you would have some existing test cases. If it is a testsuite, then you can use a framework similiar to JUnit. If they are unit test cases, then shell scripts or makefiles would be good.
