Hi all, Gerardo is doing some awesome work on Dockerizing the CI pipeline. The PR is still open here: https://github.com/apache/incubator-airflow/pull/3393
To make this work, and not store any Docker images in private repositories, I've created a new repository which stores the Docker image which contains a lot of the dependencies we use to test against. The repository is here: https://github.com/apache/incubator-airflow-ci For most of the tests, we use mocks, but sometimes we also use the actual service, for example for some Hadoop, Kerberos, Hive functionality. The images are build in the Dockerhub service: https://hub.docker.com/r/airflowci/incubator-airflow-ci/builds/ I've created it for now. I'm open for another name, but Airflow was already taken, and hyphens are not allowed. This change will greatly decouple our dependency on Travis and will make it much easier to test the code locally. Instead of setting up tox environments, we can just use Docker instead. I'm really enthusiastic about the change, and really thankful for Gerardo to put all this effort in there. Recently Holden Karau did a lifestream <https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5Il3w2P7IcM>, and did her first PR. I think the most important learning from it was that testing was not as trivial as it should be. Therefore I think we should see if we can merge the PR from Gerardo soon. Cheers, Fokko
