State: open

Eventually, we will be performing platform builds on build servers. We can install these builds nightly on virtual machines on a variety of operating systems. We can then run tests on these virtual machines, for instance, run all of the example pipelines and reconcile output to a baseline.
VMWare has facilities for programatically deploying a virtual machine (see link below).

Can test on Linux flavors and Windows, can't on Mac.
