integrate with Lightning ecosystem CI

[pl-ghost]

Hello and so happy to see you use Pytorch-Lightning! 🎉
Just wondering if you already heard about quite the new Pytorch Lightning (PL) ecosystem CI where we would like to invite you to... You can check out our blog post about it: Stay Ahead of Breaking Changes with the New Lightning Ecosystem CI ⚡
As you use PL framework for your cool project, we would like to enhance your experience and offer you safe updates to our future releases. At this moment, you run tests with a particular PL version, but it may accidentally happen that the next version will be incompatible with your project... 😕 We do not intend to change anything on our project side, but still here we have a solution - ecosystem CI with testing both - your and our latest development head we can find it very early and prevent releasing eventually bad version... 👍

What is needed to do?

• have some tests, including PL integration
• add config to ecosystem CI - https://github.com/PyTorchLightning/ecosystem-ci

What will you get?

• scheduled nightly testing configured for development/stable versions
• slack notification if something went wrong to investigate
• testing also on multi-GPU machine as our gift to you 🐰

Hi, @pl-ghost,
sorry for the late reply. Yes, this makes sense. We will try to cover it in the future release if not the next immediate one. Currently, we are busy with other features but definitely will put it on the agenda.

Cool, that would be awesome! 🐰

@Borda we will deprecate our Lightning integration in favor of Lightning-flash integration.
We did a blogpost with Thomas a few months ago.

I see, but I may say that the EcoCI is suitable for any Lightning integrations 🐰
