It looks like using cron on travis-ci will enable us to create daily builds. However, travis-ci doesn't allow for cron jobs to be run at any particular time. Also, it does not appear that it is possible to label these builds, so they will just appear in the same stream as other builds.

The tests are not marked as throwonfailure for the execution of the pester tests because I want to be sure that we always upload our artifacts.

After this change is merged, we can create the cron job (which is now enabled for us in travis-ci)

A cron job needs to be created to start the build, and the variable
TRAVIS_DAILY_BUILD must be set to true

Start-PSBootstrap

Maybe we still want packages out of it? I.e. Start-PSBootstrap -Package; ...; Start-PSPackage

I was wondering about that, my thought that was if we're not doing it for pull requests, i didn't want to do it here. I'm open to an alternative position, though. @andschwa do you have an opinion?

I think it's better than nothing and hopefully, we can get Azure orchestration sooner than later.

Maybe we can leave some other hook to allow full builds on CI with REST api.

yah - that's the plan for the future, but I don't know what that hook will look like. For the moment I wanted to get builds started sooner, rather than later.
