I don't want to eat a 24h overnight full rebuild every time I fix a single typo. I do want to verify it still builds (i.e. I haven't missed one of the use cases of a renamed variable.) The shorter the feedback loop, the less context I have to rebuild for errors, the faster I can fix the error, the more efficient I am. I'm not so far along that I make much use of the red squiggly lines generated by my IDE to highlight syntax errors before I even hit save - I use too many languages that can't be adequately parsed that fast for them to be terribly accurate - but it's a sign of just how much people want to shorten that feedback loop. Have the CI server do full rebuilds overnight? Sure. Although I still have to bug my coworkers to pay enough attention to the CI server to even notice it's gone red from their changes, at times. Convincing them to read through the warning logs is a nonstarter. |
