+Creating a pull request
+-----------------------
+
+To create a pull request (PR) for your change. First please go through the
+`PR template`_ and run through the checklist.
+
+Ray automatically runs continuous integration (CI) tests once PR is opened, it
+runs on `Travis-CI <https://travis-ci.com/ray-project/ray/>`_ with multiple CI
+test jobs.
+
+
+Understand CI test jobs
+-----------------------
+
+The `Travis CI`_ test folder contains all integration test scripts and they
+invoke other test scripts via ``pytest``, ``bazel``-based test or other bash
+scripts. Some of the examples include:
+
+* Raylet integration tests commands:
+    * ``src/ray/test/run_gcs_tests.sh``
+    * ``src/ray/test/run_core_worker_tests.sh``
+    * ``src/ray/test/run_object_manager_tests.sh``
+
+* Bazel test command:
+    * ``bazel test --build_tests_only //:all``
+
+* Ray serving test commands:
+    * ``python -m pytest python/ray/experimental/serve/tests``
+    * ``python python/ray/experimental/serve/examples/echo_full.py``
+
+* Ray test commands:
+    * ``python/ray/experimental/test/async_test.py``
+    * ``python/ray/tests/py3_test.py``
+
+If the Travis-CI exception doesn't seems to be related to your change, please
+use `this link <https://ray-travis-tracker.herokuapp.com/>`_ to check recent
+flake tests.
