--------------------------------------

             Summary: [R][CI] Run nightly tests against multiple R versions
                 Key: ARROW-5134
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-5134
             Project: Apache Arrow
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Continuous Integration, R
            Reporter: Krisztian Szucs


This requires to fix the docker-compose build of R, which is failing currently:
https://travis-ci.org/kszucs/crossbow/builds/508343597

Reproducible locally with command:
{code}
docker-compose build cpp
docker-compose build r
docker-compose run r
{code}

Then introduce an {{R_VERSION}} build argument to the dockerfile, similarly like
the python docker-compose defines and uses {{PYTHON_VERSION}}, see:
- https://github.com/apache/arrow/blob/master/python/Dockerfile#L21
- https://github.com/apache/arrow/blob/master/docker-compose.yml#L247-L259

Then add to the nightly builds, similarly like python:
- https://github.com/apache/arrow/blob/master/dev/tasks/tests.yml#L29-L31
- https://github.com/apache/arrow/blob/master/dev/tasks/tests.yml#L153-L184

There is already a {{docker-r}} definition, the only difference is to export an 
{{R_VERSION}} environment variable.
