I think some historical (how many of last X builds have failed) is also useful, but you need something like a build light or dedicated screen that's unavoidable.
I really like the look of http://integration.playframework.org/, though I'm not sure what it's backing on to. I also worked somewhere that had a big-arse strobe light that somebody manually brought to your desk and plugged in if you *really* screwed the build. Let's just say that was the last time I checked in a syntax error. -glen. On 8 April 2010 10:25, Dave Newman <[email protected]> wrote: > A light's great for 1 build, but what if you have a bunch!
