Hi,

With the help of CentOS project I am happy to announce an automated
system \[1\] to test patches from bugs.python.org. This can be fully automated
to test the patches whenever someone uploads a patch in the roundup, but
for now it accepts IRC commands on #python-dev channel. I worked on a
docker based prototype during sprints in PyCon.

How to use it?
\---------------

1\. Join #python-dev on irc.freenode.net.
2\. Ask for test privilege from any one of kushal,Taggnostr,bitdancer
3\. They will issue a simple command. #add: YOUR\_NICK\_NAME
4\. You can then test by issuing the following command in the channel:

#test: BUGNUMBER
like #test: 21271

This will do the following:
Start a new job on ci.centos.org, announce it on the channel, and
announce the result also.

I will be working on a minimal lint for patches, and include it
the workflow.

The current steps can be found at \[2\]. Each build is happening on a
fresh system.

Limitations
\-----------

1\. It excepts one single patch to contain all the required changes
(instead of a series of patches).
2\. It runs only on x86\_64 architecture, CentOS7 based systems.
