It is a "service." It is related to CI. It's not s stretch to call it a "CI service." It is a component that can be added to most CI providers.

I think you are right.

- CodeShip seems to require an account just to view the build status. - They're all failing. :(

Making the test run green is not a priority. Seeing failure reports is probably even more educational than seeing green badges. FWIW, I've added Circle CI to the mix and so far I like it the most.

If you are in this exercise, I would also suggest trying with a hosted version of TeamCity.

I'd love to, but the only free provider I could find was http://teamcity.codebetter.com/ and they seem to require a pre-approval. Do you know any other providers?

Hmmm...maybe you'll find this interesting: https://strongloop.com/strongblog/node-js-travis-circle-codeship-compare/ -- Ryan [ERROR]: Your autotools build scripts are 200 lines longer than your program.

Can you elaborate why you like it the most?

For me, the killer feature was ssh access to the build container. Circle CI simply adds your Github public key to the container instance and gives you an IP address to connect to. Overall, I agree with the authors of this blog post: https://mediocre.com/forum/topics/a-tale-of-two-ci-tools-differentiating-tra....
