Do most people use Ant to compile the java files and build the war and ear files and then run it through the AAT tool? Or is there a bigger and better way to do it?

What do you suggest is the best practice when it comes to deploying web applications to a production environment? In my case, we are doing our testing in an NT environment, but will deploy our production app on the z/OS platform with version 4.
I'm mainly looking for a "Most people use Ant to compile with and then use AAT" or "Most people do it this way ....."
Thanks
