If can test the feature branch of one library X against the master branch of all the other libraries before me merge the feature branch into the master, then no "integration testing" should be necessary.
This doesn't work if you want to take advantage of a new feature in library Y that hasn't been merged to master yet, because it's still in development.
I can't see why one would ever want to do that. Who injects untested code from other libraries into his own library- or application for that matter. That's just asking for trouble, not to mention chaos.
(It also doesn't work well if your change breaks other libraries. They'll only know it after you merge to master.)
Right. I acknowledged that above. That's what the current test matrix does.
