Sorry Greg,
I think you got me all wrong. I‘m very much in favour of CI, and I
absolutely want to hear about build and test failures. What I don‘t want
is to hear about failures of the CI tool or to receive emails that are
send in response to a commit I did but require me to wade through dozens
of lines of build output in order to figure out whether I actually broke
something or if it‘s a pre-existing issue. But then again this sounds
more harsh than intended, so please take it the wrong way: I‘m merely
worried that an initial sub-par experience with Jenkins might adversely
affect people‘s opinions against an otherwise great way to ensure code
quality.
Cheers,
Niels
