I am working on implementing a build process for our project. This process
is required to be run as a cron job.
The build process is going to do a number of things, such as:
1. Back up build directory
2. Check out source code
3. set up build environment
4. build the project
5. clean the database
6. build database
7. Perform regression tests
8. Failure notification (emails to various groups/individuals)
etc
etc

My questions are:

Does maven2 provide functionality to manage and run this entire build
process? I am not sure if I am clear or not, but would I need to write a
batch file that will individually call each of the above tasks, or can I use
maven2 to achieve this functionalitiy.

Also, can all of the individual tasks mentioned above be performed using
maven2? or do i need to achieve some of them using other means, such as ant
? (for example, i know I can achieve 2 and 4 using maven2..what about the
others?)

Thanks,
-Rizwan.
