Just a suggestion - the easiest and most reliable would probably be to simply use Appveyor for this. They offer a hosted and fully managed CI service very similar to Travis CI - only difference being it runs tests on Windows boxes. And just like Travis CI, it's free! The advantage of a hosted CI service is that no one except Appveyor need to worry about keeping the build bot highly available. Only downside is their machines in the free tier can be a bit slow. But that's a problem that can be iterated on as the need arises.
