Testing-DSL-Scripts wiki no more usable after war-for-test deletion

[Michele Pagot]

From : https://jenkins.io/changelog-stable/

Plugin Development: Jenkins now no longer publishes a war-for-test artifact. Plugins using 2.64 or a later version of Jenkins (including 2.73.1) as baseline need to use plugin parent POM 2.30 or later. (issue 24064)

So now gradle test proposed in 

https://github.com/jenkinsci/job-dsl-plugin/wiki/Testing-DSL-Scripts

or

https://github.com/ghale/gradle-jenkins-plugin

seems no more usable in version like LTS 2.73.3 that result in :

Caused by: org.gradle.internal.resolve.ArtifactNotFoundException: Could not find jenkins-war-war-for-test.jar (org.jenkins-ci.main:jenkins-war:2.73.3).

Searched in the following locations:

    https://repo.jenkins-ci.org/public/org/jenkins-ci/main/jenkins-war/2.73.3/jenkins-war-2.73.3-war-for-test.jar

I just filled https://issues.jenkins-ci.org/browse/JENKINS-48877 which contains the below PR to fix that:

- https://github.com/sheehan/job-dsl-gradle-example/pull/91

- https://github.com/jenkinsci/job-dsl-plugin/pull/1093

Can you please confirm whether https://github.com/jenkinsci/job-dsl-plugin/pull/1093/files works in your case?

Cheers

This specific problem is solved using

        // Jenkins test harness dependencies

       testCompile 'org.jenkins-ci.main:jenkins-test-harness:2.33'

        testCompile "org.jenkins-ci.main:jenkins-war:${jenkinsVersion}

by the way i face another problem this tie due to  :compileGroovy and :compileJava tasks but I like to eventually keep them for another thread (full log in attach)
