I had the same question, and a colleague pointed me to the Travis
configuration file of an existing project:

https://github.com/PowerDNS/pdns/blob/master/.travis.yml

Yo can pretty much do anything you'd want to setup a ROS environment:
there's apt, shell commands, scripts, you name it. I don't know if there's
a limit to the workspace size though. One thing to take into account is
that the supported compilers and versions are fixed (eg. gcc 4.6 and clang
3.2). More here:

Adolfo
