Point taken. The issue we have is that our builds take a long time so we
have to prioritize what is included in travis. There are several components
that can't be tested in travis even if we wanted to so we test with our VM
environment frequently (daily). That's the world we live in :)
This could be added to travis but I don't know that it's worth it because
this part of Metron (setting up a Docker container to build in) doesn't change
very often. Changes that modify our packages (adding/removing scripts or other
assets) need to be tested and demonstrated in full dev anyways. Others might
have a different opinion though.
