Do you think that is too slow or too fast? Many of the CICD pipelines I work with take much longer than that. We have integration tests that deploy a fresh Kubernetes instance, install our software stack into it, and run several test suites against it.

If I am working on bug found by a pipeline that takes more than a couple minutes to run, it is generally worth my time to figure out how to run the failing test individually on my dev machine. That approach does not help when I am debugging issues with the pipeline itself.

At least for all the things I've worked on 10 minutes are considered unbearable. 20 means it'll be forgotten because a new task has been started.

What do you while waiting for the CI? Practice fencing?

This one in particular takes around an hour to run. It deploys a bunch of resources to Azure and runs a all of our integration tests. It does a complete wipe and redeploy each time, so it takes a while. Fortunately, this pipeline is only run as a final test before prompting to production, so normally I only run it once a month or so. While it's running I'll work on my pull requests, release notes, closing user stories, etc.

That's amateur numbers. We've hit 45 minutes+!
