I would like to guarantee that job B runs after job A terminates, for 
whatever reason (including timeout, manual cancellation of the job, etc.).

I could use the Build Flow plugin to do this by creating a flow that runs 
job A and then job B, but there are actually going to be many "job A"s. 
Thus I would need one flow job for each "job A" (I believe). The downside 
to this is, I hope to make it easy for developers to set up their own jobs 
that guarantee job B is run, and I can't rely on them always creating a 
flow job.

Another idea, which my co-worker had, is to set up some sort of external 
monitoring in a script that runs outside of Jenkins. That's a lot of 
complexity, though.

I wonder if there is a plugin that just allows me to check a box like 
"Guarantee post-build action" and then fill in the name of the job. It 
seems unlikely that this would work even if job A is terminated, though.

Any creative ideas?

Thanks,
-- Jerry
