Moving Builds to Apache?

[Donald Szeto <do...@apache.org>]

Hi all,

We have been depending on Travis in a while for building our unit and
integration tests, but it looks like the build queue wait time is now
pretty long on average, reducing developer velocity. I have tried to move
everything to container based testing, but it does not seem to reduce that
time.

Do you guys have any experience with using ASF's Jenkins to run tests based
on docker-compose? Also wondering if GitHub integration is in place so that
contributors would know whether their PR has passed test.

Thanks!

Regards,
Donald

IIRC build machines are of indeterminate capacity. We used to fail builds randomly based on the machine resources. Containers being somewhat more heavyweight than plain old unit tests I worry about that and ask infra.
