Hi,

I believe only the folks who have write access to the codebase, i.e. the 
committers, can stop/cancel/re-run the Travis CI jobs.

What the contributors can do is to make commits to the branch in their own fork 
& ensure it’s working/passing tests as expected, before they create the Pull 
Request.
