Hi,

I'm working on a project to extend Jenkins' functionalities to serve certain goals, but before I start writing plugins from scratch I will of course look for these functionalities in existing plugins.

Seeing as Jenkins seems to have more than a thousand available plugins, even narrowing my search to the fields I'm interested in leaves me (at first glance) with well over a hundred of them.

The first thing I'm curious about is the Jenkins build/compile/run output. I've built a sample project using Ant and Jenkins, and as far as I understand it, the console output is pretty basic (compiler messages like in Eclipse and similar IDEs, console output on run, etc.).

Are there any plugins that enrich the output of the build with additional information? I'm thinking of additional information on why the build errors occurred, maybe looking for similarities between the current build's failure and failures in the past, etc.

Thx in advance

You're still on the wrong mailing list. This list is for topics related to _developing_ Jenkins core or plugins.

Well seeing as I've been given this project on the premise that existing Jenkins plugins do not satisfy the project's goals, I'll end up developing at least one plugin. The question I posted is the start of this development.

If you still think this question is more suited for another group, would you please point me in the right direction?

Doesn't make it a Jenkins development question, so it should not be posted here.
