I will write here a short notice of the statistical implications of
building software multiple times in general. I hope you will find this
information useful.
Hypothesis: the probability of successfully building the software is
greater than or equal to p.
This hypothesis can be accepted with a confidence level c=1-p^(k+1), where
k is the number of rounds the software was built, and all the builds were
succcesful.
