I did a kind of similar but not equally implementation. The important bit
is to try/catch and ensure the last true/false command is in the right
logic, please read the below:
My use case was to run a certain Integration Test, then if it failed for
whatever reason, prompt to the user whether to rerun them again with a
certain timeout to avoid infinite waits.
stage('TestCase') {
steps {
script {
def filter = 'all'
waitUntil {
def bRun = build job: 'jobX', propagate: false // To avoid
failfast/propagate errors
if
(bRun.getRawBuild().result.isWorseOrEqualTo(hudson.model.Result.FAILURE)) {
def userInput = true
def didTimeout = false
def inputValue
try {
// Timeout in case to avoid running this forever
timeout(time: 60, unit: 'SECONDS') {
inputValue = input(
id: 'userInput', message: 'jobX failed let\'s rerun it?',
parameters: [
[$class: 'BooleanParameterDefinition', defaultValue:
true, description: '', name: 'Please confirm you agree with this']
])
}
} catch(err) { // timeout reached or input false
echo err.toString()
def user = err.getCauses()[0].getUser()
if('SYSTEM' == user.toString()) { // SYSTEM means timeout.
didTimeout = true
} else {
userInput = false
echo "Aborted by: [${user}]"
}
}
if (didTimeout) {
echo "no input was received before timeout"
false // false will cause infinite loops but it's a way to
keep retrying, otherwise use true and will exit the loop
} else if (userInput == true) {
echo "this was successful"
false // if user answered then iterate through the loop
again
} else {
echo "this was not successful"
currentBuild.result = 'ABORTED'
true // if user aborted the input then exit the loop
}
} else {
currentBuild.result = 'SUCCESS'
true // if build finished successfully as expected then exit
the loop
}
}
}
}
}
The above snippet was based on the below how-to:

I hope it helps
