Is Docker free software?

What is a sikuli test?  Can they be done without using any nonfree

It would not be good for our tests to depend on running on one particular site.
They should run on any GNU/Linux system, however it could be ok for some tests 
to require loading certain well-known free software packages.

Maybe I could find out some of those answers by looking around at that,
but I have a feeling it would take hours to find them that way.
