[R-pkg-devel] R CMD check yielding different results for me than CRAN reviewer

I have been using win-builder and Gabor's R-Builder .
You can use win-builder either from the webpage (http://win-builder.r-project.org/) or using the function build_win() from  Hadley's devtools package. Win-builder will test both r-devel and r-release in Windows.
As for r-builder, you will can use it with Travis or Semaphore (see https://github.com/metacran/r-builder). It will test with r-oldrel, r-release and r-devel in Linux.
