A build tool for Java, Scala, Groovy, and other JVM-based projects.

Apache Buildr in its own words:

Apache Buildr is a build system for Java-based applications, including support for Scala, Groovy and a growing number of JVM languages and tools. We wanted something that’s simple and intuitive to use, so we only need to tell it what to do, and it takes care of the rest. But also something we can easily extend for those one-off tasks, with a language that’s a joy to use. And of course, we wanted it to be fast, reliable and have outstanding dependency management.

Buildr is based on the ruby build tool rake, can use ant tasks, and retrieves dependencies from maven repositories.
