+) AFAIK it is tied to ANT but you need some scripting anyway to setup a test environment, provide initialization, and so on. You can also wrap the ANT process into a JUNIT test.
I'm probably going to go with faking an Ant environment:

Not because you have the flexibility to do anything you want but refactoring HTTPUnit test cases plus providing extensive reporting would reinvent the Canoo WebTest wheel. And I nearly forgot to mention that a lot of Canoo WebTests were already running and generating reports when the other guy was still pondering over the problems to solve with HTTPUnit ... :-)
I'm looking at using jWebUnit. It appears to provide a programmatic access to HttpUnit which is quite similar to webtest's functionality.
I'd like to keep the option of using java directly so that I can modify external data and then perform tests.
...
+) Here my answer get biased since I dropped ANT long ago and switched to MAVEN since MAVEN gives you a lot of tools you need for doing a "Clean Build and Smoke Test"
We're testing a php application. I'm trying to follow the shortest line between "no regression tests" and "full test suite". =)
