https://github.com/craigcitro/r-travis is a recent effort to integrate R 
with Travis. There are some obstacles to overcome, but it works quite 
nicely already. It's free, it supports Ubuntu and OS X, and it 
integrates with GitHub like a charm. May sound silly, but that's reason 
enough for me.

Do you know a CI platform where testing R packages would work "out of 
the box"? Or perhaps a better suggestion on installing R + recommended?
