For that purpose you may subscribe to the BUILD SUCCESS notification
by sending me an "opt-in" email with your tree URL.

That notification will be sent 1-2 hours after each branch's git push,
which contains the build test progress on that branch. Based on which
(or missing of it) you'll know if everything is on the track.

This will actually turn that feature on for your tree:
