My current job is a Node+React app that takes 8 minutes to go through CI. It feels subjectively a LOT better than my last job, which was Go+Node+React and took about 15 minutes, BUT... The slowest part of the previous CI process was our integration tests on Selenium. And the new stack doesn’t have any of those (it just does unit tests in Karma). And frankly, I think I’d take the 15 minutes with the extra security of knowing the whole stack is functioning together, over the speedup to my dev cycle. But I feel a bit crazy saying that. In the end, the site doesn’t seem to go down due to the lack of integration tests. Maybe because we complement with manual testing. I never deploy without opening up the site in a browser anymore. |
