Travis CI

Definitions

1. A hosted continuous integration service that automatically builds and tests code changes pushed to GitHub repositories, configured via a `.travis.yml` file. Once the dominant CI platform for open-source projects, it lost significant market share to GitHub Actions after a controversial migration from travis-ci.org to travis-ci.com.

   In plain English: A cloud service that automatically tests your code every time you push changes, configured by a simple file in your project.

   Example: "Our .travis.yml is still running Node 12 builds — honestly we should just migrate to GitHub Actions at this point."
