An often overlooked extension to Structure101 is the “Headless” mode of operation. This lets you hook Structure101 into your nightly build so that it checks for things like newly introduced complexity or architectural rules being violated while you sleep. You specify what you want checked, and whether you want to break the build or just receive a warning.
Eran Harel (“Code Slut”) has blogged how he uses this in Orbitz.
