Setting UP Continuos integration

• Provision a debian/ubuntu linux server machine on cloud provider
• Install docker following instructions: https://docs.docker.com/install/linux/docker-ce/debian/
• Install pip and locust
• Go to docs/ci directory and run ./build_example.sh to build a sample Jenkins container
• Execute ./run_example.sh to start a sandbox Jenkins instance
• Fork/copy the content of https://github.com/runonautomation/locust-framework repository to your private repository

In Jenkins

• Create new multibranch pipeline job
• Under Branch sources add Git and add url to the private repository
• Leave build configuration default: By Jenkinsfile
