Vexor is a distributed cloud web-service for building and testing software, a continuous integration tool.
Vexor helps a developers’ team to keep to Continuous Integration methodology. The original code of the project can be stored at GitHub, Bitbucket or at GitLab. [1] The number of workers launched simultaneously is not limited as they automatically start for each new build. [2] [3]
The following languages are maintained: [4] Ruby, Clojure, Scala, Python, Node.js, Go, Rust, Haskell. It is possible to use a configuration file in the vexor.yml format or an already written file in the Travis CI format (.travis.yml). [5] [6] Vexor can also send notification e-mails and notification messages into a Slack chat. [7] The fee depends on the number of minutes spent on the work of the service. On July 25, 2015, one minute cost $0.015. [6] [8] Starting April 1, 2017 Vexor removed their 100 minutes/month free tier for all accounts. [9] There are no plans to support open source projects with free tiers, currently. [10]
Vexor is being developed by the Evrone Company. The service was launched on October 2014. [11] [12] [13]
Among Vexor clients one can find: [14] Meduza, Bookmate, InSales and others.
A software repository, or “repo” for short, is a storage location for software packages. Often a table of contents is stored, as well as metadata. Repositories group packages. Sometimes the grouping is for a programming language, such as CPAN for the Perl programming language, sometimes for an entire operating system, sometimes the license of the contents is the criteria.
This is a comparison of notable free and open-source configuration management software, suitable for tasks like server configuration, orchestration and infrastructure as code typically performed by a system administrator.

Docker is a set of platform as a service (PaaS) products that use OS-level virtualization to deliver software in packages called containers. Containers are isolated from one another and bundle their own software, libraries and configuration files; they can communicate with each other through well-defined channels. All containers are run by a single operating system kernel and therefore use fewer resources than virtual machines.
Runscope is a SaaS-based company that provides solutions for API performance testing, monitoring and debugging. Runscope allows software developers, QA testers, DevOps engineers and other API stakeholders to collaborate in creating, managing and executing functional API tests and monitors. Runscope is based in San Francisco, California.

AppVeyor is a privately-held Canadian corporation founded in 2011.
tox is a command-line driven automated testing tool for Python, based on the use of virtualenv. It can be used for both manually-invoked testing from the desktop, or continuous testing within continuous integration frameworks such as Jenkins or Travis CI. Its use began to become popular in the Python community from around 2015.
Buddy is a web-based and self-hosted continuous integration and delivery software for Git developers that can be used to build, test and deploy web sites and applications with code from GitHub, Bitbucket and GitLab.
