This is my feeling too, it's pretty trivial to do this stuff in any CI infrastructure.

At NYU we have this entire process built into very trivial CMake and Github Actions stuff.

Here's an example: https://github.com/NYU-Processor-Design/PurdNyUart

You can see we have 100% test coverage, illustrated by CodeCov, and our CI runs the test suite on each PR. This is very normal in the software world and I guess I don't understand why the hardware world would need a specialized provider just to run Verilator for you.
