Hi, I should start with the fact that I am new to jenkins. The problem is I've got extreme difficulties finding documentation and general information how to do things. But before abandoning it and using another CI server I decided to ask a question first.
I have a project which needs to build and its tests run on several OSes (Windows 7/8, x86/x64) so I've created a VM for each OS. So far I've installed jenkins on each VM and created a new job for each jenkins server and copied the configuration file. Then I edited the file for each VM because the path for git.exe, the build tool and the tool running the tests are different on x86 and x64. Yes, that's a stupid way to do it but it was a quick solution and I did it anyway to get things started. As always happens, today somethings needs to be changed and I don't want to change it several times. Are there any features in jenkins to support the these? 1. I guess my job needs to be created in a central place and I have to tell the jenkins server installed on each VM to use it. 2. My job needs to have some parameters - the path to git.exe, the build tool and the tool running the tests. I need to use those in the job (I suppose there's some $parameter-like syntax). Also, there should be a way to define the values for those parameters for each VM. 3. I used the NUnit plugin to publish results but I don't know whether the results from all VMs (in case that's possible) can be shown in one place? Alternatively, this is not needed if I can open the build log for each VM in my central jenkins server.
