Travis CI is a hosted[1] continuous integration service used to build and test software projects hosted on GitHub,[2] Bitbucket, GitLab, Perforce, Apache Subversion and Assembla.[3]
Travis CI was the first CI service that provided services to open-source projects for free but as of December 2020 no longer does so.[4] TravisPro provides custom deployments of a proprietary version on the customer's own hardware.[citation needed]
The main software is proprietary. Some adjacent tools like API clients are open-source.[5]
Travis CI is configured by adding a file named .travis.yml, which is a YAML format text file, to the root directory of the repository.[6] This file specifies the programming language used, the desired building and testing environment (including dependencies which must be installed before the software can be built and tested), and various other parameters.
The default CPU architecture used in Travis CI builds is amd64. It is used when no arch key is present. You can identify for which CPU architecture a build job is run via the GUI:
| Architecture | Open Source | Commercial |
|---|---|---|
| amd64 | Yes | Yes |
| ppc64le | Yes | No |
| s390x | Yes | No |
| arm64 (v8) | Yes | No |
| arm64-graviton2 (v8) | Yes | Yes |
It is possible to use Docker in multiple CPU architecture-based builds within an LXD container. You may need a specific CPU architecture-compliant Docker image as a base or ensure relevant libraries required by your build are added to your Dockerfile.
When Travis CI has been activated for a given repository, GitHub will notify it whenever new commits are pushed to that repository or a pull request is submitted. It can also be configured to only run for specific branches or branches whose names match a particular pattern. Travis CI will then check out the relevant branch and run the commands specified in .travis.yml, which usually builds the software and run any automated tests. When that process has been completed, Travis notifies the developer(s) in the way it has been configured to do so[6]—for example, by sending an email containing the test results (showing success or failure), or by posting a message on an IRC channel. In the case of pull requests, the pull request will be annotated with the outcome and a link to the build log using a GitHub integration.
Travis CI can be configured to run the tests on a range of different machines with different software installed (such as older versions of a programming language implementation to test for compatibility).
The Travis CI blog is mainly run by Travis's Software Engineer, Montana Mendy. [7]
The company is headquartered in Berlin, Germany, and was founded in 2011.[8] In 2012 the project experienced significant growth[9] and launched a crowd funding campaign to fund further development[10] which was sponsored by dozens of technology companies.[11]
In January 2019, it was announced that the company had been acquired by Idera, Inc.[12]
In March 2019, Travis CI infrastructure suffered a massive outage from 27 to 29 March.[13][14][15]
In March 2020, Travis CI introduced 'The Cookbook' written by Montana Mendy with tutorials for common use cases.[16]
In November 2020, Travis CI announced the shutdown of travis-ci.org by 31 December 2020, with all existing and new accounts migrating to travis-ci.com. Despite the official pledge to keep "open source accounts completely free under travis-ci.com",[17] open-source projects report that their build jobs stalled.[18] Travis CI is no longer free for open source accounts. Travis CI only offers non-renewable sign-on bonus of "10K credits to use over a 30 day period" meant for evaluation of the paid features.[19]

Assembla is a web-based version control and project management software as a service provider for enterprises. It was founded in 2005 and acquired by Idera, Inc. in 2018. It offers Git, Perforce Helix Core and Apache Subversion repository management, integrations with other collaboration tools such as Trello, Slack, GitHub and JIRA. Assembla also offers integrations with customer's managed private clouds.
Carnivores 2 is a first-person shooter video game developed by Action Forms and published by WizardWorks in North America on October 21, 1999. It is the sequel to the 1998 video game Carnivores and is the second in the Carnivores series. The source code became available on Assembla in 2013.

Damn Small Linux (DSL) is a Linux distribution for the x86 family of personal computers. It is free and open-source software under the terms of the GNU GPL and other free and open-source licenses. DSL is designed to run graphical user interface applications on older PC hardware, but the exact specifications required differ significantly between the original version and the modern version.
Before the 1921 destruction of Tulsa’s Greenwood District, Black residents had created a remarkable center of business and community life. The district included stores, professional offices, entertainment venues and homes owned by Black citizens. Understanding Greenwood means learning what was built—not only what was burned.
