toli kuznets commented on CONTINUUM-509:
----------------------------------------

Having an ability to always execute a scheduled build is very useful, 
regardless of whether or not there were any code changes checked in. 
This is a great way to uncover race conditions - the more often the tests run, 
the safer you feel. Isn't that the whole idea of unit testing? the 
hourly/nightly builds are always running and always testing, even if you are 
out on vacation. 
So I strongly believe that being able to always have the build run even if 
there were no changes is a core part of Continuum functionality 

> Ability to process scheduled builds the same as forced builds.

> It would be great if you could configure a build schedule to act like a 
> forced build on the scheduled build.
> The use case for this is when you have two build definitions:
> - One will be set to default for a forced, light build.  For example, install 
> the artifact.
> - Another will be set to a scheduled, heavy build.  For example, deploy the 
> artifact and the project site.
> If the default build is triggered, the other build will be skipped since 
> nothing has been updated since the forced build.  And we do not want to do 
> heavy stuff in the default build.
