Ant tasks are available for you to deploy RuleApps and
Java XOMs. They support both HTTP and HTTPS communication protocols.
API mappings for Ant tasks
Ant is a build tool based on Java. To use the Ant tasks
in an Ant project file, you must declare the class path and the mapping
between Java classes and task keywords. To do so, you use the task-def Ant
task.
Ant tasks for remote testing
When testing a ruleset remotely, you can use an Ant task
to automate the repackaging of the Scenario Service Provider (SSP).
