If your pipeline uses secrets, these can be injected locally simply by passing environment variables:

$ MY_SECRET=mybigsecret drone exec

Running a full matrix build is not supported at this time, however you can execute a single matrix axis by passing environment variables to the drone exec command:

$ GO_VERSION=1.4 drone exec
