I've recently got some experience of a project called Travis CI. As
the title says it's a CI, Continuous Integration testing server for
open source projects. They host all the building and testing, you just
add a YAML configuration file and a github hook and then it can build
and run your tests. It can also test pull requests.
We already have somewhat similar setup for DMD and Phobos including
pull requests. But this would be for everyone. I think it would be
great if this was something that people start to use for their
projects in the D community.
This Travis started out as a build server for Ruby, where it's wildly
used. Ruby on Rails among other projects are using it. It also
supports other languages like C, C++, Scala, Go and many others. The
only problem is that it doesn't support D and it only supports Linux.
I already created an issue for adding support for D :
https://github.com/travis-ci/travis-ci/issues/730
Unfortunately I haven't got any answers yet. Maybe we can push this
somehow.
There's also an issue about supporting Windows and Mac OS X. It seems
something might happen in this area pretty soon:

Personally I would rather use Jenkins as it is much more mature.
Actually, maybe I should look into how to do a D CI system with Jenkins.

You don't really have to do anything special other than set up build
jobs that invoke <build system you're using>: http://ci.lycus.org/
