Create a Continuous Integration Server

[nfcopier]

Summary

We need a CI server to make deployment easier and avoid the numerous mistakes we've had

Acceptance Criteria

• A CI server program is chosen
• The server checks whether Peripherals compile
• The server checks whether Sockets compile
• The server checks whether the Arduino sketch compiles

Non-functional Criteria

Eventually, we want the CI server to run unit tests as well. But the frameworking is not yet setup on our project.

It sounds like TravisCI has built-in Slack integration.

It is also free for open-source use.

Cool. I will have a look.

https://travis-ci.org/ is an option for our CI server.

I added compiling the Arduino sketch as an Acceptance Criteria. Thinking about it, it might take quite a bit of work to compile sketches on the CI server. Should that criteria be moved to a separate issue to be done later?

I have looked at the Travis CI, it seem to work in our case. I have worked with Jenkins CI, which is quite good. I am planning to try both of them to see which one fit better to our need. Now all i need is the server to test them on.
