The question is in the title.

This is almost the same question, but it's dated, so I think one should not be considered a dup:

Are there any good Continuous Testing plugins for Eclipse out right now?

I find that it is generally best not to do your continuous integration tests inside your local IDE. You are much better off having an integration./automation server running Hudson, Jenkins, Cruise Control, etc. This way the tests are always done against what is in SVN, the same tests are applied to all developers code, and environmental 'weirdness' does not impact your testing. That said, it is not a bad idea to run your unit tests both locally and on the integration server. If your tests fail locally, they aren't going to work once you commit, either.
