Historically, build automation was accomplished through makefiles. Today, there are two general categories of tools:^[1]

Build automation utility (like Make, Rake, Cake, MS build, Ant, Gradle etc.)

Whose primary purpose is to generate build artifacts through activities like compiling and linking source code.

Build automation servers

These are general web based tools that execute build automation utilities on a scheduled or triggered basis; a continuous integration server is a type of build automation server.

Depending on the level of automation the following classification is possible:

• Makefile - level
  
  
  
  • Make-based tools
  
  
  • Non-Make-based tools
  
  
  
  


• Build script (or Makefile) generation tools


• Continuous integration tools


• Configuration management tools


• Meta-build tools or package managers


• Other

A software list for each can be found in list of build automation software.
