Jenkins Build fails when artifacts are not there
- by leifg
I use Jenkins to run some integration tests on a web appilcation (using cucumber, capybara and selenium)
Everytime a test fails, a screenshot, the HTML source and a video of the process is saved.
the path structure looks like this:
results/output/<test_name>/<files>
I use the archive artifacts feature of Jenkins to provide the files (pattern: results/output/*/*). It works great.
However as soon as a build succeeds, there are no screenshots/videos etc... and the build fails because Jenkins cannot find the files for the pattern.
Is there a way to tell Jenkins to succeed without having the files present?
I don't want to do a dirty hack which involves creating an empty folder structure like result/output/success/hooray.txt.
