Travis CI was moved from travis-ci.org to travis-ci.com but these CI tests are no longer for free as it was recently. Monthly credits were consumed within few days for our tests

I have no access to https://travis-ci.com/organizations/wikimedia/plan/usage but how much will it cost to support our usual testing per month?
Looks like the url hasbeen changed. It is https://app.travis-ci.com/organizations/wikimedia/plan now.
The costs are 69$ p.m. for 1 concurrent job up to 249$ p.m with 5 concurren jobs (which we had previuously). There is a discount of 8.33 % for the annual fee.
btw the last fee was payed by @aezell in December 15, 2020 (1 month only)
I have sent a question to WMF rapid grants team whether it would be possible to cover testing by a grant:

IMO travis-ci is mostly a dying platform, they're not responding to security issues or questions (https://travis-ci.community/t/questions-on-security-bulletin-repository-secrets-leak-to-prs/12094) and AIUI most of the original development team have been let go. Rather than paying them I think a better long-term option is to either get it working with GitHub Actions, or Wikimedia GitLab's setup.
I agree with @Legoktm that we should move the tests to either GitHub Action or to GitLab (if we move to that platform later) but it is indeed a long-term option because we have no tests there but a lot of environment tests are currently untested (including Python 3.10 tests). Setting up new tests also need new test accounts, Currently and since 5 months we only have Appveyor tests for some wikimedia sites on Windows environment and the deepcheck with Windows 3.6 on jenkins for wikipedia:test without login (Jenkins only supports 3.5 - 3.8). Maybe in meantime it would be helpful to have Travis tests until these tests were migrated. Most travis tests would run on a sponsored server if we could replenish our OSS credit balance.

[pywikibot/core@master] [tests] remove TRAVIS settings
Ignore my last comment. I've added a minimal github action which acts like our jenkins deeptest but uses Python 3.5 - 3.10 and (new!) pypy3. Let's start with that.

I've migrated most tests from tests to github but I have no access to the Pywikibot-test* user accounts. Their passwords must be added as github secrets:
https://github.com/wikimedia/pywikibot/settings/secrets/actions
Who can add them?
see Travis settings:
Hi @Xqt,
Do you have access to pywikibot account on toolforge? (according to https://admin.toolforge.org/tool/pywikibot you do)
The password for Pywikibot-test is stored in a file named passwd in the home directory of that account.
