To this end, we've set up a few helper scripts in the AOSP platform/external/adt-infra repo to make it easier to get started running the Linux emulator in Docker with KVM acceleration and adb / gRPC ports exposed. The scripts are based on what we're already using internally for various CI needs.
The revision of the scripts for this release is here:

We very much welcome feedback on any difficulties using the emulator in CI generally, not just in Docker; what are common issues? What tools other than Docker should be better supported? To do so, please file feedback to https://issuetracker.google.com/issues?q=componentid:192727%20 with "CI" or "Continuous Integration" in the title.
