Adding travis support
Tests against R past, present and future
Output looks like: https://travis-ci.org/github/csgillespie/oysteR/builds/663845329
Once you implement travis, you should add a Github token as an environment variable. This token doesn't need any permissions and should be called GITHUB_PAT. This used to avoid rate limiting on travis when installing packages

Is it possible to do this in CircleCI or should we go to Travis? Really your input is what we'd look for! We tend to use CircleCI as an org, but we also like Travis so it's not a huge deal to have something there, just aim for consistency more or less with the other projects.

You can use circleCI, but it would require continuous maintenance. For example, in a few months, the version of R will update, and the Travis file will automatically "adjust" to the current.

With the circleCI, you're currently pinned to 3.6.1 - https://github.com/sonatype-nexus-community/oysteR/blob/ReleaseBranch/.circleci/config.yml#L13

My 2 cents are drop circle CI as you will be forever tweaking it.

Proviso: I don't know much about circleCI
