I agree -- I have my ad-hoc test system not because I enjoy collecting random things to run tests on but because we don't have an automated system that does what I need: * wide coverage, focusing on oddball host architectures and OSes * ability to ssh in to a machine where tests have broken if need be * decently fast to complete a test run (travis is terrible for this) Note that "fast to complete a test run for me" is in conflict with "usable by anybody who wants to submit a pull request" :-) thanks -- PMM
