<http://stackoverflow.com/questions/16021333/is-there-a-way-to-use-jenkins-to-run-an-interactive-test-script-and-have-a-user#> I have some hardware components I'm looking to test in a semi-automated fashion. This will involve procedural steps similar to: 1. Prompt user to connect signal A to connector J1 2. After user confirms this is in place, automatically check for successful signal detection I have experience writing such tests using bash, python, etc. I have also used Jenkins to manage builds and automated tests. What I would like to do (if possible) is combine the two somehow and use Jenkins to manage running of an interactive script on a test computer. This would allow me to leverage Jenkins' ability to consistently spawn scripts on a test computer and archive artifacts and console output history indefinitely. The part I'm not sure about is how to allow a user to interact with a Jenkins job that is in progress. Does anyone have any experience with this or know if it is possible? This is on a Linux system, so maybe I can run it in a 'screen' session that the user could attach to?
