I'd personally probably use loginfo to update the test area and run the test,
then move tested releases to the server by hand, but I'm a bit paranoid that
way.  The same script that you run from loginfo that updates the test machine
can check the output of your test run and decide whether to prommote the new
code to the server or not...
