CI will help us. I think you know what is CI and what goals it allow to reach. (If no, you can read about CI here).
This is the first article about CI in drupal development practice.
Goal of that articles is to describe architecture of CI system and disscuss it's effectivity.
I'm going to create CI infrastructure that will be easy to use on practice of drupal development.

Here is the plan:
1) Ant build scenario.
2) Hudson configuration.
3) Code quality control - Copy/Paste reduce and Code style.
4) Drupal Simple Test and CI.
5) Selenium and Drupal Simple Test module.
6) Effective build configuration.
