Is it a good idea to follow each automated build with the execution of automated tests?

The correct answer is D. Yes, the tests may identify whether there are bugs that the developers should fix before. It's definitely a good practice. And not because you can see the code coverage (which also isn't an excellent metric of quality and progress), but because you can detect problems before moving
