SCons can be configured to use SC-test (or some other test tool) to provide controlled, automated testing of software. The Link method could link a test subdirectory to a build subdirectory:

	Link('test', 'build')
	SConscript('test/SConscript')

Any test cases checked in with the source code will be linked into the test subdirectory and executed. If SConscript files and test cases are written with this in mind, then invoking:

	% sccons test

Would run all the automated test cases that depend on any changed software.
