Using something like Vagrant probably. Purpose: to be able to spin up (multiple, simultaneous as needed) testing instances to run against our quick set of known good/stable tests (see bug 51491).
This should also be useful for developers who want a throw away instance on labs to use for development/testing.
You mean like https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/Help:Single_Node_MediaWiki ? Or do you mean to include the actual spinup/test/spindown script in this bug?

Yeah, like that, only automated. > Or do you mean to include the actual spinup/test/spindown script in this bug? Right. This enables bug 52424 ("Run smoke tests on hermetic instances per patchset submitted in mediawiki/core")
