Using - hhvm only tests against the EOL hhvm 3.6.6 version

The code below provides the current HHVM version (3.15.2 as of this comment) and will track with each release (i.e. will be 3.16 when 3.16 is released).

If testing against HHVM LST versions is desired follow this guide. https://docs.travis-ci.com/user/languages/php#HHVM-versions

Should be able to change to container based Trusty after Q1-17 https://blog.travis-ci.com/2016-11-08-trusty-container-public-beta/
