The ControlTier framework is an open source (http://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/controltier/index.php?title=Main_Page) workflow automation engine specializing in the application development and deployment life-cycle.
We've been providing the means to manage JBoss development and deployment for several years now, and the latest release includes the means to configure both continuous build of a JBoss source base, and continuous deployment of the resulting ear files.
You may wish to take a look at our "Duke's Bank" demonstration: http://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/controltier/index.php?title=ControlTier_Demo to get an idea of how ControlTier helps make a success of JBoss application development and deployment as part of a broader application platform (often including web, database and messaging components too).
With quite a number of JBoss sites using ControlTier, we feel that its a valuable pairing for anyone needing to establish and maintain an ongoing development and deployment process (Agile, or otherwise).
