I agree, and I strive to make this work in everything I do now.
However, in practice you'll have to deal with legacy software (that doesn't even have to be that legacy), with colleagues that aren't aligned with it, and with people being afraid.
Currently I'm working in a company that mainly does nightly builds and manual testing, but I'm working in a new project and trying to make it work like you say. I am constrained though, they have Jenkins as CI which is a bit painful to work with (as in it'll take me a lot of work to get things where I want them to be). Working with pre-commit, pre-push hooks and a solid IDE goes a long way though.
