Documentation isn't up yet however it is planned. ref: https://github.com/travis-ci/travis-build/pull/303 As an example of Syntax (https://github.com/grooverdan/PyMySQL/blob/c05bf7c6d0f3161d91b3e1418ac185b87...) to test against all MariaDB versions as well as the pre-installed MySQL. Quick snippet: matrix: include: - addons: mariadb: 5.5 - addons: mariadb: 10.0 - addons: mariadb: 10.1 So add it to your own project's .travis.yml or send a PR to your favourite github project that can use MariaDB and Travis-ci. As for MariaDB-server in Travis-CI? we'll see if the bug committing fairies decide https://github.com/MariaDB/server/pull/84 is useful. -- -- Daniel Black, Engineer @ Open Query (http://openquery.com.au) Remote expertise & maintenance for MySQL/MariaDB server environments.
