I work in an OpenStack-related community that uses "Jenkins Job Builder" to build Jenkins jobs. I don't know a lot about it, but I did manage, with a lot of help from our infra team, to make the changes required to build the new project I was adding.

I'm also pretty familiar with Groovy, although I haven't done much with Groovy in Jenkins besides viewing several presentations on how it works.

I'm really interested in any factual comparisons of JJB with this "Pipeline as Code" concept in Jenkins 2.0. Seeing some of the other schisms between the communities I work in, I imagine there aren't too many people who intimately understand both sides of this, but I'd appreciate if anyone has any detailed examination of this.

One particular thing that I wonder about, how "testable" or "verifiable" are scripts using this "new" paradigm, compared to what a production JJB script would look like? I sometimes hear about JJB scripts that fail at runtime because there were details that couldn't be verified on the desktop. Does "Pipeline as Code" deal with this at all?
