CI Setup

minishift-b2d-iso uses CentOS CI as CI build server. It builds incoming pull requests and any push to master along with archiving the build artifacts. You can find the CentOS CI jenkins master job here and the pull request job here.

On a successful pull request build, the build artifacts can be found at artifacts.ci.centos.org/minishift/minishift-b2d-iso/pr/<PR ID>.

On a successful master build, the build artifacts can be found at artifacts.ci.centos.org/minishift/minishift-b2d-iso/master/<BUILD ID>.
