I've always liked the buildbot project for these things:
http://buildbot.net/trac

Not having time right now to read through the runner code, I can't
tell whether it would be easier to set up their runners and  webpages
or to just mimic the web interface for clicking through the most
recent tests.  For a working example you can see the sympy's version:
