Continuous Integration for Mailman Projects
Mailman Developers,
Since you all know that a big reason why we moved to Gitlab from Launchpad was Continuous Integration. As of now, only the forks of core developers were automatically built by the Gitlab CI runners that we have added for Mailman Project.
But now, thanks for Simon Hanna, anyone can enable Gitblab's Shared Runners and run their tests inside a Docker Container. Right now, this only works for Mailman Core, but very soon I am going to extend this to other project repositories too.
How to:
Pull the latest commits from the Mailman's repo1 or fork it if you haven't already.
Go to the project settings page of your fork and you will see an option called 'Runners' in the left hand side menu.
In the runners page, push the big green button that says "Enable Shared Runners".
After this, each commit that you push to your fork should automatically be tested. If you don't see the CI running at all, make sure that you have enabled CI for your fork.
Under the Project Settings, in the Features section, check the box
that says "Build". AFAIK, this should be enabled by default, but just in
case if it is not.
Again I would like to Simon Hanna for this contribution.

I would highly recommend contributors to Mailman 3 enable their runners. It helps me quite a bit when reviewing merge requests to see if the test suite succeeds. I've also been looking at some enhancements to core's tox.ini to ensure things like 100% coverage in differences between new branches and master.
Cheers, -Barry
