Assaf Arkin commented on BUILDR-297:
------------------------------------
I think it should be recursive.
Specs are much more useful if they run quickly and reliably, so I would
recommend writing most specs with mocks and hooking directly into the task, so
you're only testing what the logic will do without having to wait (or even
compile). Best guess, it will be enough to have just one spec that runs CC in
a separate thread, forces and checks the result of compilation.
> Add Support for Continuous Compilation Mode

> Buildr should include a project_local :cc task which activates a continuous
> compilation mode. This mode should monitor source and test directories for
> changes, triggering a recompilation as necessary. Given Buildr's primitive
> recompilation detection (especially with Groovy and Scala) and its extremely
> long startup time on JRuby, this feature should save a great deal of time,
> particularly in a quick-rebuild scenario. For this reason, I am assigning it
> a priority of "Major".
