How might you convince someone that using a CI system is advantageous no matter how small the project is? Context: I'm a student trying to get my peers into using CI systems for homework assignments and smaller projects, as I think it's not only an important concept but makes running tests a lot easier.

I think so. You get used to the workflow and it saves you time. Even if you don't write any tests and are just working on a tiny Lambda function, having the deployment configured once and triggering it automatically when pushed to / merged into master is super helpful in my opinion.

Btw. students can use Codeship for free.
