Have you thought of running this as a service? Would be nice to just through an NPM module at it and make sure it will run across multiple versions. Without having to install docker, etc. Not sure I'd pay for it, but maybe somebody would...



If I could do it open-source and still earn money on it to cover cost of hosting, I'll try. Still haven't figured out a way though.

Someone else is working on something like that: https://twitter.com/bahmutov/status/720316267173810176


Other languages have this sort of test service available for open-source modules. One example is cpantesters.org, which is integrated into Perl's package repository. Not only is it easy to check what passes in your environment, it also makes it easy for module authors to fix bugs in environments that the author has no (other) access to.


Funny you should say so, the origin of the idea behind autochecker, is actually CPAN's and CRAN's way of automatically test packages.
