How to FInish Job Success even if it failed

[Gyanendra Mishra]

Hi There

i am stuck at a point and need help

i am executing webdriver scripts using jenkins

if any test fails, build is failed

and then i am using post build action to rerun the failed scripts

my problem is that if post build task is successful but i see the overall job status as failed

is there any way to mark job as success if post build task is successful

i tried to add other post build task and text-finder plugin but no luck

using ant target in batch script

Add a /bin/true on failed statement.

Try:

false || true

or

make test || true

It might be easier to simply re-run the job on failure rather than trying to do something post-build. I accomplish this automatically with Naginator:

Hello Jonathan,

 

Rerun the whole job would not be helpful if there are 2 tests failure out of 10. Rerun would unnecessarily run all 10 tests again.

Hello Kirk,

 

Before making job success, we need to check that post build task status is success.

 

Please help to define how to mark main job as success only if post build task is success.

In that case, maybe you should consider putting your conditional test
re-running in a regular build step rather than a post-build action.
Then, you could more easily control whether Jenkins considers the job to
be a failure or success. I doubt you'll find an easy way to tell Jenkins
to consider the job as a success after it's decided it failed.

Hello Kirk,

You can check build status by analyzing log. You can use Text finder for that. To manually fail a build do a conditional step with Text finder and run shell with `exit 1`.

Hello Maciej,

 

I already tried that but it seems like it is not looking the text in the log of post build task. If I look text for log before post build task, that works.
