To create a shortcut to an existing docker image, see this stackoverflow answer. Use this technique to create alias for Gitlab and MySQL containers. Remember to tag specific image ID instead of the tag. That way we are sure of the image we are pulling.

To test the containers, usedgoss + goss, goole's way using container structure tests.

A tangential thought: bazel or waf seem interesting for running user code on the execution nodes.

Instructions to push the docker images: docker push

In our case, the instructions used were:

docker pull mysql:5.7.4
docker tag mysql:5.7.4 autolabjs/mysql:5.7.4
docker push autolabjs/mysql:5.7.4
docker pull gitlab/gitlab-ce:10.1.4-ce.0
docker tag gitlab/gitlab-ce:10.1.4-ce.0 autolabjs/gitlab-ce:10.1.4-ce.0
docker push autolabjs/gitlab-ce:10.1.4-ce.0
