> Maybe I'm dense. But to me, a CI till must provide an excellent build summary report, including detailed test information - run time, failure traces etc., a detailed coverage report, including increase/decrease percentages.

By _far_ the most valuable thing about gitlab CI is re-using the existing mesa test farms and related infrastructure for running tests on actual hw. Nice shiny results summary (which gitlab can do AFAIU) isn't hugely useful, as is knowing pass/fail/flake and having enough artifacts to debug when necessary.
