Buildbot does no magic here: it is essentially a system that does things
on potentially multiple build hosts when triggered by some event. Everything
else is outside the scope of buildbot. If you want to build on all these
platforms you must have them at hand and install an buildbot-slave on each
of them. What you could do is have a host with all VMs installed but only
poweron them on demand in the buildstep, however that is a bit uncommon and
needs customizing the buildslave part.


Best regards
