Description
A plugin to handle red builds in Jenkins. The plugin allows users to volunteer to investigate/fix red builds. It also creates a report with all volunteers and a summary report of all the current red builds in a view. For develops it's possible to extend the attention plugin to create your own build failure detection to populete the issue list.
Configuration
After installing the plugin you need to setup the plugin for sending
mail and also adding the teams. Go to Manage Jenkins -> Configure
System.
This plugin will also require that you enable user security and the
users need to login before they can volunteer.
Volunteer to fix/investigate build
When a build goes red there will be a volunteer section on the build
page where the users can volunteer them self or another user/team. The
one volunteered will be notified via mail (if different from the logged
in user).
Build Failure Report
The Build Failure report will list all the failed builds in the current
view. Information such as number of failures and who broke the build
initially will be displayed.
Volunteer Report
The volunteer report lists the builds that contains volunteers. At the
beginning of the page the builds that the current user has volunteered
for will be shown.
Extension point
If you are a developer and want to add your own issue detection you can write a class to your own plugin that extends the AttentionExtension class

@Override
public List<DetectedIssue> getIssues(Run<?, ?> run) {
List<TestResultAction> actions = run.getActions(TestResultAction.class);
List<DetectedIssue> issues = new LinkedList<DetectedIssue>();
for (TestResultAction action : actions) {
List<CaseResult> failedTests = action.getFailedTests();
for (CaseResult result : failedTests) {
DetectedIssue issue = new DetectedIssue(TestResultAction.class.getName());
issue.setupTestFailure(result.getTitle(), result.getErrorDetails(), result.getFailedSince(),
result.getFailCount());
issues.add(issue);
}
}
return issues;
