This may not be the cleanest way, but my ant build files are like

    <property name="src.dir" value="./src/java" />

    <property name="test.home" value="./src/test" />
    <property name="test.runner" value="junit.textui.TestRunner" />
    <property name="test.failonerror" value="true" />

    <property name="lib.dir" value="./lib"/>

    <property name="build.dir" value="./build" />
    <property name="build.src" value="./build/src" />
    <property name="build.test" value="./build/test" />
    <property name="build.dest" value="./build/classes" />
    <property name="build.javadocs" value="./build/docs" />
  </target>

  <!-- Compiles the source directory -->
  <target name="compile" depends="init,prepare-src">
    <javac srcdir="${build.src}" destdir="${build.dest}">
      <classpath>
        <fileset dir="${lib.dir}">
          <include name="**/*.jar"/>
        </fileset>
      </classpath>
    </javac>
  </target>

  <!-- Compiles the tests -->
  <target name="compile.tests" depends="compile">
    <javac srcdir="${test.home}" destdir="${build.test}">
      <classpath>
	<pathelement path="${build.dest}" />

        <fileset dir="${lib.dir}">
          <include name="**/*.jar"/>
        </fileset>
        <fileset dir="${junit.home}">
          <include name="**/*.jar"/>
        </fileset>
      </classpath>
    </javac>
  </target>

  <!-- Creates the class package -->
  <target name="package" depends="init,compile">
    <jar jarfile="${build.dir}/${name}.jar" basedir="${build.dest}"
         manifest="${build.src}/${manifest.file}" includes="${jar.includes}"/>

    <copy todir="">
      <fileset dir="${build.dir}">
        <include name="${name}.jar" />
      </fileset>
    </copy>
  </target>

  <target name="test" depends="compile.tests,test.[package]" />

  <target name="test.[package]">
    <java classname="${test.runner}" fork="yes" failonerror="${test.failonerror}">
      <arg value="[package].[Package]Test"/>
      <classpath>
	<pathelement path="${build.dest}" />
	<pathelement path="${build.test}" />

        <fileset dir="${lib.dir}">
          <include name="**/*.jar"/>
        </fileset>
        <fileset dir="${junit.home}">
          <include name="**/*.jar"/>
        </fileset>
      </classpath>
    </java>
  </target>

where [package].PackageTest is either a TestCase or TestSuite as needed.

Hopefully I haven't snipped out any of the useful bits in this e-mail.
