Deployment of PHP project with Hudson/Jenkins
We use it for all the above where I work. I've briefly described the process here. You can Google "Hudson template" or "Jenkins template" for a boilerplate to doing so.
I'm currently researching Jenkins for use with PHP-based projects, but have yet to use it in an actual deployment situation. Chapter 12 of Jenkins: The Definitive Guide by John Ferguson Smart covers implementing automated and continuous deployment. This chapter should give you some ideas. You can download the guide for 'free' from

...provided you're willing to fill out your details in the download form.
Also, Sebastian Bergmann (the creator of the php-template for Jenkins) has authored a book entitled Integrate Your PHP Project with Jenkins which is supposed to be published in August, 2011 by O'Reilly Media. I don't know the exact contents of the book, but let's hope it provides good examples of how to use Jenkins for deploying applications built using PHP.
you should check out the build pipeline plugin:https://wiki.jenkins-ci.org/display/JENKINS/Build+Pipeline+Pluginyou can set up your own qa workflow with that.
