How to automatically run some test when check-in
Hi,
I am new to svn.
I want that every time someone checks in his or her code, the sever can
invoke some tests, which might run on another server.
The svn sever only invokes the tests; it doesn't run them.
Is svn capable of doing this?

I you want to test on different platforms, then buildbot could work for you.
It supports both polling and email triggered processes:

Those using Trac (http://trac.edgewall.org/) might get Bitten
(http://bitten.edgewall.org/)
:)
There's also CruiseControl, although it seems heavily Java-oriented.

Note that many files can change in one commit. You probably want your ssh
command to do an update of a working copy where the tests are performed which
will pick up all the changes. Also note that additional commits may happen
before earlier runs are complete - I'm not sure if these block or if your
scripts have to deal with it. Scheduling runs and collating the results are
just a few of the advantages of using hudson.

You feed the repository path and revision number to "svnlook changed".

You can use the svn hooks to trigger hudson or have hudson poll svn.
For maintenance, I recommend hudson polling svn rather than the svn hook
mechanism.
Just use Hudson you'll be set up in 30min as long as you have a machine with
Java 1.5+ on it to run Hudson (you don't need to be writing java software to
use Hudson)

Thanks to those replied.
I want to try svn hooks first.
After reading the documentation, I still don't know how to get the filename
and its path of the file being committed when the post-commit hook fires.
The post-commit hook just has two arguments:
1. Repository path
2. Revision number created by the commit

You might run some ssh command as a post-commit hook, but you would probably be
better off using something like hudson (http://hudson-ci.org/) which can poll
for changes and run jobs with a more complete cross-platform framework.
