GitPod Environment Not Set Up for Tests

[ShaunSHamilton]

When running an instance of the platform in GitPod, npm run test:curriculum throws this error:

> cross-env FULL_OUTPUT=true mocha --delay --reporter progress

Error: Failed to launch the browser process!

Since the update of Puppeteer, I needed to run sudo apt install libgbm1 to update, before the tests work. I assume something similar can be done for GitPod.

I think the way forward is to (create?) use a docker image that has the deps bundled on it. From the pupeeter docs, it seems we can tweak the node:alpine for this and use that on the config as per the docs from GitPod.
