We're using github pull requests to drive Google Cloud Build.

It's a fair amount to set up....

Fully automated:

  1. Create pull request
  2. All unit-tests are run
  3. All
  4. P&R is run (using Quartus in docker image)
  5. Timing checks (our own script as P&R will not return non-zero exit code even if there's no timingclosure)
  6. (Not in the cloud, but on a local Jenkins slave) The bitfile is uploaded to the FPGA
  7. (Not inthe cloud) Various tests are run on the FPGA
  8. The pull request is marked as correct
  9. Mergify on github merges the pull request
