Can you suggest a free solution for setting such a simulator environment?

It needs to be accessible from Travis, which means a public ip address and 
outgoing access allowed from inside Travis to it (I know that it is possible to 
do some deployment from Travis, i.e. to initiate outgoing connections, but I 
don't know what the restrictions are, if any).

Being a heavy Docker user, I like this solution. Just that it needs two Docker 
images, one for Intel and one for Arm machines.

Unfortunately, please correct me if I'm wrong, the Windows and macOS virtual 
machines available on Travis do not have Docker installed. :-(
