Hello Mark, first I want to thank you for your answer. I think I didn't describe my task clearly. I would like Jenkins to check wheter in Jenkins oder in another tool like 'DOORS' the task given by moodle is done. So Jenkins checks the Tool in which the Moodle participant has to do his task and looks wheter the task is done. If so, there has to be a connection between Moodle and Jenkins. Jenkins has to show Moodle hat the task is done, so the task in Moodle should automatically get a tick mark.
How could I make this kind of communication? Through a URL? Web Services? Am Freitag, 21.
