I do agree that at the moment Travis is either creating false sense of security 
when it is green, or a burden for contributors when it is red, because most of 
the time it goes red for no good reason.

However, I would still find it valuable to have travis run a single command:
mvn clean isntall -P developer,systemvv

That is because, still many people commenting on PRs don’t even do that. In 
addition this would be faster than the Jenkins build, so it would provide 
faster feedback.

+1 it doesn’t help like this.


I look at actual test result people post combined with code reviews. Plus an OK 
from Jenkins should be more than enough to judge a PR.

Let’s make Jenkins more reliable, that would help as well.

Guys and dolls,

We have been having travis builds for a while now and they seem to generate
more work then help. There are a lot of time-outs, (false positive) and
when a suite passes it is often because all tests where skipped (false
negative). In addition, and this may be just me, I've never been able to
pinpoint a problem based on travis output.

therefore:

I move that we completely disable travis runs on PRs to the cloudstack
project. This will reduce confusion about whether a PR is good and will
reduce the need for willing contributers to force push their branch over
and over.
