Yes, that is one benefit if you use tbot, see git bisect help:

http://tbot.tools/modules/tc.html?highlight=bisect#tbot.tc.git.GitRepository.bisect

You only have to pass to the function the good commit as string and
a tbot python function which tests the current commit. This test
function now can call other functions like run a complete build of
current source, copy the resulting images let say to a tftp directory,
install the new images on the device, reboot it and run tests on the U-Boot
comamndline on the real board ...

So using tbot for the complete development process makes a lot of sense,
also as you have at the end a complete setup for testing your board (not
only U-Boot also linux or other commandline based machines are possible
to automate), it is easy to start a CI ... as tbot is a commandline tool
a simple cron job is enough .. or you can integrate it easily into jenkins,
buildbot, gitlab CI runner ... whatever CI you use...

If you want to get help setting up tbot, feel free to ask me or Harald
directly or on the tbot mailinglist:

Heiko
