JenkinsLint Plugin

==================



This plugin has mainly two goals:

- To make it easier to detect issues in your Jenkins configuration that will cause Jenkins to blow up when you attempt to run those jobs.

- To encourage discussion within the Jenkins community on the more subjective stuff. Having a set of checks to base discussion on helps drive out what we as a community think is good style.



See [JenkinsLint Plugin](https://wiki.jenkins-ci.org/display/JENKINS/JenkinsLint+Plugin) for more information.

Motivation

==========



Jenkins is an awesome Automation System, and there are a bunch of people using it in different ways, for instances:

developers, testers, automation, build engineers, release engineers, scrum master, product owner and so on. Unfortunately, as

the number of jobs grows, maintaining them becomes tedious, and the paradigm of no using a predefined set of best practices

falls apart.



The jenkinslint plugin attempts to solve this problem by allowing jobs to be evaluated with some predefined

best practices. The goal is for your team to be able to define those best practices to be related to their project.



Manually reviewing those jobs wouldn't be too hard, but doing the same thing all over again for every new job or for

a hundred other projects is where it gets difficult and tedious. This provides a much more powerful way of analyzing them.
