This looks cool, but I'm not sure what it has to do with devops? It just seems to be automated test environment provisioning, am I missing something?

Historically kernel development had very little of this kind of systematic, automated testing; it relied on careful review of pull requests followed by the core developers running regularly-updated builds on their own machines.

Everything is "devops" these days. :)

I thought it was in the spirit of devops, speeding up development/testing by closing the feedback loop. Also, reducing operational and infrastructure burden or friction.

I'm with you, I have no idea what Devops does kernel development.

The idea is good, but the name is wrong. It's like if I made a script that automated using Nodejs & Sonarqube and called it Kagile. There's more to Agile than just using a couple tools; same with DevOps.

> Devops just means IT guy who doesn’t know how to code.

It literally doesn't. Go out and enjoy your weekend, Sir.
