There is none. We do have an automatic build system which builds
nut/os and some apps after each change in our or nut's CVS.

some while ago we added the nut tracer, some macros which allow
to do very precise (some uS) timestamping of core nut/os functions
and even measure latencies. but this is probably only for special
testing of the os and not really suited for app/os regression test

printf.. :)
