The Wireshark Buildbot automatically rebuilds Wireshark on every change of the source code repository and indicates problematic changes. This frees the developers from repeating (and annoying) work, so time can be spent on more interesting tasks.

Each step is represented at the status page by a rectangle, green if it succeeded or red if it failed. Most steps provide a link to the corresponding console logfile, to get additional information.
The Buildbot runs on a platform collection that represents the different "platform specialties" quite well:
and two buildslaves that run static code analysis to help spot coding issues:
Each platform is represented at the status page by a single column, the most recent entries are at the top.
