Jenkins: Pimp It Up!

Posted on 06:07 by Unknown

Some days ago, I started to review what plugins are available for Jenkins, my favorite CI server. I haven't done so for a long time, so I was somewhat surprised to see a full universe of plugins (380+) listed in the Wiki...

There is next to everything you can imagine. Among the plugins I would like to suggest for consideration are these:


  • Dependency Graph View Plugin – Shows the dependency graph of the Jenkins projects using graphviz. This greatly helps to keep track of dependencies between all your Jobs.



  • Disk Usage Plugin – This plugin calculates and records disk usage (space for builds and workspace) per project and per build, and can display trend graphs.



  • Global Build Stats Plugin – can be used to gather and display global build result statistics, monitoring over time, and show nice graphics.



  • And, of course, all the static analyzing plugins that scan result files of several static code analysis tools and visualize the results as trend graphs:
    • Checkstyle Plug-in
    • Cobertura Plugin
    • FindBugs Plugin
    • JavaNCSS Plugin
    • PMD Plugin
    • Task Scanner Plugin
    • Warnings Plugin



Have fun!
