We run a tight ship at my company. Code is unit tested, and upon check-in to version control, the code is tested and built into a last-good-build. CoronaSDK breaks this process for us as there isn't a way to automate the build process. With our Android SDK apps, we have automated build, test, and deploy to hardware devices. With a command line build process we could achieve similar results with Corona.

Support for Command Line (thus Continuous Integration) builds
I completely agree, I've been searching the docs for this but cannot find anything. It would be tremendously helpful if the build process could be automated.
Our team is just starting to look into this as well and agree with the above. We need a way to automate nightly builds so the rest of our team can test with the latest.
This would be extremely useful in Corona.
+1 Also, it would be great if the builds were faster so the dev, build, test loop was faster. The Corona simulator is great, but testing on the device is where I can be certain things are working. Command line builds + faster builds gets us two big steps closer to continuous deployment.
Any update on this? This is still a highly desired feature for an improved workflow with Corona.
Can anyone from the Ansca team comment on this? The feature would be very welcome!
Thanks

There is no doubt this would be a productivity boost for many teams using Corona.
Corona team already mentioned they had it in mind, about a year ago: http://developer.anscamobile.com/forum/2011/02/09/new-command-line-parameter-not-really-working#comment-23403
Waiting for it to be available, I was trying recently to play with the buildfile inside the Corona.app. See: http://developer.anscamobile.com/forum/2010/12/20/command-line-building#comment-42768
