Set up our own bucket for GCS integration tests #450

Open mpenkov opened 4 years ago

Related to above, does it make sense long term for me to be the one running those tests? Would RaRe-Technologies be willing to create a Google Cloud account to run the tests on? I would be happy to help in any way with that, but I don't think it makes sense to have the account linked to me. I believe you get $300 in credits for the first year and billing information isn't even required during that time. I can't imagine these tests costing much money to run after that. I'm happy to open a new issue to discuss this further if that is more appropriate. (cc: @piskvorky)

@petedannemann we have bad experience with free time-limited trial accounts, because when they expire it's chaos. Or worse, somebody forgets and we get billed for money.

Unfortunately we have zero budget for open source, this is all 100% voluntary work (which we sink a lot of our time into).

@piskvorky if I did a cost estimate would you accept a donation?

mpenkov commented 4 years ago

@piskvorky The price is comparable to what we're paying for our S3 bucket (https://cloud.google.com/storage/pricing#price-tables). We don't move large amounts of data around, so it'll be no more than a few cents per month, from what I understand.
