The next version (1.8) will allow to call external scripts or/and deliver xml formated test result to TL.
No native support in the current version. You must develop it yourself if you hurry.

Can you please help me how to start of with.

Exactly my requirement is to customize the user interface to check out code from CVS and associate the HEAD or BRANCH to a specific project or project plan .

Then I should write an event which triggers the ant script in the CVS repository so that it should build and deploy the module to server.

Can you give me suggestions how to achieve thsi and some specific files to go ahead with.

I am two days old to product.

Thanks in advance.

It depends on your experience with scripting IMHO.
Good start is google to get a solution for CVS from others. Don't forget to look into testlink developers guide then.
