Note: there are a number of other plugins that do a similar thing, but as far as I can tell, the Throttle Concurrent Builds Plugin is the one that is being maintaind, and is the preferred one to use. From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of RDR Sent: 03 June 2016 15:55 To: jenkinsci-users Subject: How to postpone job execution until after another job has finished Hi, I've got an odd problem setting up a Jenkins server and i was just wondering if anybody could suggest a solution. I've set up 3 jobs on my server: 1. Build-Application - a typical Jenkins job that downloads code from SCM builds it and run the Unit tests. The generated artifacts are archived. Then... 2. Deploy-Application - take the archived artifacts, Ssh them to a Linux server and run an installation script. Then... 3. Functional-Tests - Run the functional tests. Since step 3 has a very low load on the server but can take a couple of hours, I've set up a second executor on the Jenkins server. This way fresh commit in the SCM will be pulled and tested quickly. The trouble is that the Deploy-Application job can be triggered by the second executor while the first one is running Functional-Tests. This causes the functional tests to failing because we've pulled down the environment while they were running. Is there a way of blocking the Deploy-Application so that it can't run while Functional-Tests are in progress?
