Jenkins: Is the fixed Jira on the server?

A Jira may show as resolved on trunk or merged to one of the other servers (versions), yet when testing, the problem still seems to exist. Fixes will show up on the server after a restart and this is where Jenkins comes into the picture.

Jenkins will list the Jiras per build, if the build was successful, and the time of the build. If testing fails when according to the Jira the issue has been fixed, the first thing to check, (before failing the Jira), is if it is actually on the server.

If you are testing a fix on trunk, click on the link for sakai-master.

For any other server, scroll down to Possible Next Executions.

Click the link for the appropriate server.

Once you’re on the server of interest, click the Changes link.

The Changes page will list the most recent builds and you can now look for the Jira in question:

If the Jira is not listed, then wait until the next rebuild and check again. Once the Jira is listed the fix can be tested.
