If we can schedule use either TestNG or Junit Frame works.... it will easy to populate the results instead of maintain customize results in selenium

Abhay,

You would essentially leverage Continuous Integration tools such as Jenkins/Hudson to carry out the scheduling for you.

If you are looking for easier ways, I would suggest that you take a look at setting up cron jobs (UNIX) or scheduling tasks via the Windows Task Scheduler wherein you would merely execute a shell script/batch file.

The batch file/shell script would essentially contain the logic to kick off your tests.

Thanks & Regards

Any CI tool should do the trick.  I personally prefer bamboo since it supports automatic branching support, this allows you to check your tests in with the source code, then automatically create new CI instances running the tests on that branch any time the code gets branched.

Another way is to use a simple task scheduler.  But I think the CI tool is the better way as it'll automatically manage your artifacts and give you nice little plugins to graph the results and send friendly emails to your devs when tests start breaking.
