What your proposing is even worse than what I thought. Not only you wont
have a "build on each commit" type of thing (which I setup using Jenkins
and a receive hook), now you're even proposing to blindly upload without
even trying to build first!!! So no, "source-only" uploads isn't a
satisfying answer here, IMO.

On what hardware will this run? My last setup was with PXE booting a
Debian live system on which a Jenkins job was running a script using
ssh. The script was using openstack-deploy to setup an all-in-one node.
A VM would work, provided there's no MAC address filtering, and if
there's enough RAM, plus if you can "reset" it on each tempest job run.

I see no other way but to ask DSA for a VM here. The normal jenkins VMs
wont have enough RAM to run OpenStack, unfortunately.
