Hi,

I'm able to parametrize a build with the branch name for checkout. 
Nevertheless, the build results for all such branch builds are linearly 
ordered. This means that on the JUnit test result page, the result of build 
#n is always compared to the result of #n-1. If those builds are not for 
the same branch, this comparison is quite useless. When building a feature 
branch before reintegration, I'd like to compare the result with the build 
just before forking the branch, not with the last build executed. Even 
worse, the next build of the stable branch is now compared to the last 
broken build of an arbitrary feature branch.

Everything works fine, if builds are expected to terminate with zero test 
failures. Unfortunately, when doing test-first-programming (where tests for 
not yet implemented features exist long before the feature is being 
implemented) or having lots of regression tests for known bugs that are not 
yet scheduled, there is a need for precisely monitoring the difference of 
the test result in comparison to some baseline build - not the test result 
itself.

Is there a way to do that, planed to be implemented, or regarded a feature 
worth considering?

Best regards
Bernhard Haumacher
