Run unit tests in Jenkins / Hudson in automated fashion from dev to build server
In Jenkins/Hudson, it's quite ok to have many jobs. some for doing compilation triggered version control changes, some for running (unit) tests triggered by successful builds, some for doing more tests (integeration) trigered by successful earlier tests, some for deploying, triggered by successfully passing all tests.
Look at plugins like join, build pipeline, parametrized trigger and more to help out with this.
This will also allow things to happen in parallel, by using multiple nodes. Trying to cram everything in one job is not the way to go.
