These tools are great for such things. Eric Hatcher's book, "Java Development With ANT" (http://www.manning.com/hatcher), has a nice chapter on continuous integration, focusing on these three tools. He gives a good basic comparison of the three that I agree with. I recommend that you get this book highly - for this, and for the best practices (Integrating SCM with build process and more) help you are looking for in the other email :) There are many many excellent recommendations throughout. IMHO: Based on a very basic look at the three, the most immediately-obvious difference is getting the tool set up- Anthill is the easiest to get running and to get projects started. Other than this and look and feel, each has its own pros and cons, as all seem to be great tools- so a look into the book above and a trial of each might be helpful.
