How can I use xcodebuild in command line?

I'm a newbie to xcode. I'm using xcode 4.3 with lion. I want to use xcodebuild in command line, but it report "no such file". I searched it with Finder, but no result.

What is this file's path? Does it exist in the Xcode.app? Can I search files in a .app package?

Additional info: When I typed "which xcodebuild", it return /usr/bin/xcodebuild. Enter this folder, and type xocdebuild, it still return Error: 

Can't run /Applications/usr/bin/xcodebuild (no such file).

/usr/bin/xcodebuild only calls the xcodebuild command from the developer tools directory given by xcode-select. To find out the current developer tools directory as given by xcode-select run

xcode-select -print-path

I fixed the issue by changing that path executing

sudo xcode-select -switch /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer

Which is where my developer tools are. You should change /Applications/Xcode.app to wherever your Xcode application is.

The installer put mine in

/usr/bin/xcodebuild

You can also find it in the application bundle:

/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/usr/bin/xcodebuild
