What is an Ant build in Java?

ANT stands for Another Neat Tool. It is a Java-based build tool from Apache.

Ant is used to simplify the mundane tasks such as compiling the code, packaging the binaries, deploying the binaries to the test server, testing the changes, copying the code from one location to another etc. It is an Operating System build and deployment tool that can be executed from the command line.
