Hi folks,
I see a continuous build and test system has been discussed
before, e.g.

Yes, this has been implemented, and has proven very useful, see gsoc-testsuite module in our SVN and the results at http://home.hccnet.nl/th.v.d.gronde/inkscape/ResultViewer.html. Unfortunately this is largely limited to testing rendering, which is important but only a part of Inkscape's functionality. More things can be automatically tested via --verb command line scripts, but this hasn't been done yet as far as I know (that is, --verbs work, but no one has written the actual tests and a harness to run them).
I think we first should try to get the tests run regularly and automatically. Now we have to rely on the awesomeness of Jasper, which is great but probably not endless ;)
