Thank you both for your reply, Let me take those two emails as "expressing
interest" so we should not cancel this activity. I will update the blog
post to indicate "email geoserver-devel" if interested and we can extend
the deadline until the end of next week. I would like to evaluate and
select a proposal during our next geoserver meeting.

To answer Gabriel's question there are three main approaches that have been
discussed so far:

a) cite command line: The existing scripts made use of a the cite engine to
run tests on the command line. It was tricky to run a GeoServer, wait for
it to startup, and then perform the tests. These jobs are still on
build.geoserver.org and can be used a a reference.
b) cite engine service: The new cite engine has a rest-api, so the testing
script could use CURL commands to ask the engine to run the tests
c) cite engine docker: The cite engine is also distributed as a docker
image, if that makes it easier to manage the rest-api approach

Any of those approaches can be viable, the challenge (after our last
experience) is setting up something that can be maintained.

Other notes:
- The WFS-T tests required a database to run, the tests created a couple of
tables each time (since the transaction request modifies the content)
