40 to 7: How We Sped Up Confluence's Build by a Factor of 5
Don’t you hate committing code and then waiting hours to find out you broke the build? Even worse is when other people commit code at a similar time to you, and you get dragged into the ‘who broke the build’ witch-hunt by pure circumstance. If your build times are blowing out because of long test runs (greater than ten minutes), then you are most likely suffering from CI (Continuous Integration) latency and the above problems are real problems for you and your team. Clover can help alleviate theses problems, by optimizing both unit and acceptance tests, drastically reducing the feedback time for each commit. What follows is a case study of how Clover’s Test Optimization is run on the Confluence project.
