Simple sequence would just be: build; run_tests

The syntax you quoted is doing a logical AND of two expressions. Expressions are any bit of script - including calls to executables (like the example).

It's a pity that PowerShell is Windows-only (Pash notwithstanding); its syntax is small, supports pithiness and verbosity equally well, and has an easy to understand flow once you're over the first learning hump.
