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.
