But I slapped together a simple "build" test using Travis CI that's publicly visible. Currently I can't build the tools because of some issues *. I know we have osstest but I figured this could be a simple build test of each commit to each branch. Interestingly just doing a quick test shows that builds fail currently with clang [1]. * The VM based approach fails to find a python it can link to. The container based approach fails due to some dependencies not being white listed by Travis [2] [3].
