A very simple example of this can be found here: https://github.com/apache/creadur-rat/blob/master/Jenkinsfile AFAIK it supports matrix builds as well (have a look at https://github.com/apache/plc4x for a deeper integration). Just my 2ct. At work we had the same discussion as people wanted to use the Gitlab equivalent of GA .... just because it looked better. Personally I never used buildbot as I considered its config rather obscure, but you seem to have the same feeling towards Jenkins. Cheers & happy weekend, Phil
