Keep Dependencies Low

• Look for opportunities to cut down the build time by reworking dependencies.
• Restructure components as necessary to ensure build times stay reasonable.
• Update any dependency changes resulting from new changes.

Begin Build

• When changes are ready to be integrated, start a build. Only create a clean build when absolutely necessary. A clean build occurs during the nightly build. If the build will not run unless a clean build is done, check the dependencies to ensure that the build is running optimally.
• Coordinate with the other developers to ensure that they are not in the process of checking in development tasks. Start a build to allow others to use changes.
• Consider the need to run iteration tests based on the time constraints for the build.

The build is started.
