Ultimately it all comes down to business case. If there isn't one to invest in CI, developer time to build a test suite with 100% coverage, and then ongoing upkeep of that, then it's not going to happen. We are too often religious about these things, and may not have visibility within the business to see why there isn't a case for it. Having said that it can also be very hard to convince management of the business case. That may have had a bad experience of these tool and practices before and see them as a waste. Thay may also, in that specific case, be right.
