About Travis CI
Travis CI is a cloud-based continuous integration and delivery solution that helps small to large software development teams test, debug and deploy codes. The platform enables users to sync projects with the system to test multiple libraries against different runtime environments and data stores.
Travis CI uses OAuth to validate information for defining role-based access to repositories and facilitates lightweight directory access protocol (LDAP) or security assertion markup language (SAML) syncing for permissions. The solution also enables users to integrate TraviS CI with their existing GitHub enterprise installation in order to manage source code and scale out custom build infrastructure. It offers various customizable build environment images with languages and other dependencies for deploying different applications. Teams can increase their build capacity to test numerous codes.
Travis CI's multi-node setup and load balancer provides safety from hardware failures. It can be hosted on various cloud and on-premise environments such as AWS, Google Compute Engine, VMware, OpenStack, and Azure. Plus, it integrates with several third-party applications including TravisLight, Team Dashboard, Project Monitor, and more.

Travis hasn't let me down yet. This services handles more than 90% of our builds.
Travis hasn't let me down yet. This services handles more than 90% of our builds.
Pros
Travis does a few things really well:
1. Documentation - the documentation is extensive and complete, and one never has the feeling that there are "hidden features" that only the power users know about.
2. Speed - waiting for more than a few seconds for a build to start is extremely rare.
3. Deploy integrations - builds can be deployed to a set of services easily. This is probably the easiest way to set up continuous deployment if you're on a tight budget.
Cons
The build environment can be somewhat restrictive, forcing one to choose language-specific base images and not giving access to the underlying VM.

Nice GitHub Integration
Reviewed on 02/07/2021
Pros
I like that I can see the live status from GitHub and that the UI is very simple. I can easily find everything. The console output is colorized (it's not in other CI software I've used).
Cons
Sometimes parts of log output is collapsed, which has hidden an error for me before. It took a while, but my team figured it out.

Between the cons described above, the service degradation I've observed in the past 6 months and your recent organizational and pricing changes (we are an open-source project and directly impacted), I'll be setting up Github actions to run my CI tests from here onwards (this is also about standardizing with other projects in my organization) and will deactivate my travis account.
Pros
It worked really nicely until about 6 months ago !
The previous unlimited open-source plan was generous, and a huge selling point.
Cons
Service has been less than ideal since the decision to move OSS projects travis-ci.org. We have felt this throttling of resources, and it was an indication that things were about tho change for the worse.
I was surprised to find that from one day to the next my CI builds weren't being run anymore.
Sure enough, you had a banner announcing the change from travis-ci.org to .com , but I didn't understand it would require changes on my side, and I didn't receive an email letting me know that my CI builds would just stop if I didn't manage it. I'll admit my fault in not checking more thoroughly.
Moving from .org to .com was not as easy as I would have liked (Why do I need to sign up for a beta? Why is it in beta, and why do you need more decisions from me that I don't have all the information to decide?), but I eventually got there.

Effective continuous integration on the cloud

Travis CI helped my teams build continuous integration pipelines running on Github projects extremely easy and rapid.
Pros
Travis CI is the go-to continuous integration tool for open source projects thanks to its tight integration with Github. It provides a great set of tools on the cloud for integrating existing and new Github projects, configuring their build parameters and running builds based on various Github events such as the opening of pull requests which gives an unprecedented level of control to project leads on how code is merged in to projects.
Cons
Travis is a bit complex to integrate with version control platforms other than Github. Configuration to make it work with other platforms such as private GitLab servers can be tricky.
