When you say "we don't have the software installed" are you referring to the
required frameworks for the integration tests (Microsoft .NET platform for
example)?

I believe the only operating system that is capable of passing all
integration tests in Windows, due to MS .net platform only being available
for windows.

Another option is to refine our testing strategy to enable functional/unit
tests to be easily written for maven plugins.  If this were possible (maybe
it is and I just don't know how), then we could rely on these tests to be
ran and rely less on the Continuum server running the integration tests.

Thoughts?

Yes, we really should.

The main hurdle is going to be running any integration tests since we
typically don't have the software installed (and that probably means
building any .NET plugins as well).

The current build server runs on Solaris 10 (x86). There is also an
ubuntu virtual machine we can use.

Do you know of any alternatives?

I obviously prefer Continuum :)
