If Nathaniel can test the code from time to time for the time being, we should
already get some coverage. In the near future, we could certainly set up a CI
job if you let me know what infrastructure to use for it.

Please keep in mind that a lot of us are doing this as volunteers and we don't
always have the possibilities to respond to such requests within a short time.
