Hi all,
We have one Jenkins master hosted on Linux which is used for building
install packages from source codes.
And also we have 6 window and 2 linux test servers which are used for
TA(test automation) purpose.
Usually one test server is used for only some similar test suites. And we
store all our TA scripts/config files/test files in SVN.
It is very easy for me if I have only one test server for our TA.
I could create one job (SVN_poll_job) which focus on polling TA
scripts/config files/test files from SVN to slave.
And create same job as TA1_job, TA2_job that would copy some TA
scripts/config files/test files from SVN_poll_job, then start to run TA.
But here I have 6win&2linux servers. One (SVN_poll_job) is not enough
now to poll svn to slaves.
I have to create 8 similar SVN_poll_jobs for each test server. I think that
is not good practice.
Maybe you would suggest move poll svn action into TA1_job, TA2_job.
But that has some shortcomings, (a) all TA jobs would poll SVN (b) I would
like to save spaces, and actually one TAx_job do not use all TA
scripts/config files/test files.
So here is my problem.
May I get know if there are some plugins or mechanism make one job run
on all or specified slaves if this job has some changes?
Best Regard
Bill
