When I run "gradle clean build", everything runs fine on my local machine (Windows Win7 desktop) using Cygwin session. Java compile and test run is successful.
When I run "gradle clean build" on a Linux terminal i.e. using a putty Session, it fails during the test task but Java compile part is successful.
When I run "gralde clean build -x test", it works (as we are excluding test task call).
Im getting the following error message when I use "gradle clean build" on a putty session:

Now, As I mentioned earlier, in Cygwin (Windows local machine), everything works as I may have all the Graphical/AWT settings/tools available on my local machine via Cygwin.
Now, what could I be missing???
As I also getting the same error (when running via Putty session) in Jenkins job as well, I thought installing / using Jenkins "Xvfb Plugin" would help as it says:
Lets you control Xvfb virtual frame buffer X11 server with each build. It starts Xvfb before the build starts, and stops it with the build. This is very useful if your build requires X11 access, for instance runs tests that require GUI.
I configured this plugin according to the instructions: https://wiki.jenkins-ci.org/display/JENKINS/Xvfb+Plugin
but, it's still giving me an error.
Jenkins logs (When I'm not using Jenkins Xvfb plugin) is showing the same error like I'm getting in a Putty session.
Similarly, when "gradle clean build -x test" is called, Jenkins job is successful but I have to run "gradle clean build" (which fails).
Now, When enabling Jenkins "Xvfb" plugin in Jenkins Global configuration (under Manager Jenkins > Configure System) and at Job's configuration level, I'm getting the following error in Jenkins log during the execution:
..

When at Job level configuration for Xvfb's Advance configurtion, I mentioned value in the box for "Xvfb specific Display name" as 13 or 16 (as per the plugin), I see the same errors for tests part (as I got earlier), but X11 related error this time, comes as:
15:31:42 Xvfb starting$ Xvfb :16 -screen 0 1024x768x24 -fbdir /production/jenkinsAKS/2013-08-23_15-31-388454769980302593302xvfb

15:31:44 ERROR: Xvfb failed to start, consult the lines above for errors
ps -eAf|grep -i xvfb - doesn't show anything running on the Linux server.
When Jenkins job runs using Xvfb plugin, it initiates the call to start / stop the X Display during it's execution automatically (as per Xvfb plugin's features on Jenkins Xvfb help page).
I also found that X11 forwarding is enabled on Linux machine:
# grep X11F /etc/ssh/sshd_config
X11Forwarding yes
#
One thing I notice is, the user which I use to run Jenkins is: "jenkins" and once I log to the Linux machine as me (c123456 id) and then do "sudo su - jenkins", then, there's is NO .XAuthority file.
Doing: ... does show it exists: ls -ltra ~c123456
-rw------- 1 c123456 devgroup 406 Aug 23 13:07 .Xauthority
But, the same doesn't exist for user jenkins i.e. ls -ltra ~jenkins (doesn't have any .XAuthority file).
Linux $DISPLAY variable is set but "xclock" doesn't work. I have it X11 setting enabled/checked for X11 forwarding (at client side i.e. on my Windows local machine putty setting for target Linux machine session).
[c1234563@devserver1 ~]$ echo $DISPLAY localhost:15.0 [c1234563@devserver1 ~]$ xclock X connection to localhost:15.0 broken (explicit kill or server shutdown). [c1234563@devserver1 ~]$
I tried this link but still not able to resolve the issue, following what it says to resolve it.
What could I be missing at this point which can help me:
1) to resolve the tests fail issue using Putty session or through Jenkins job way.
2) I'm wondering if Xvfb plugin is doing the X Display using memory frame buffers, then I should not install any X Display server/client on my local Windows machine / target Linux machine like XMing, XVnc/TightVnc etc.
This is an odd answer, but I did the following to resolve the issue. I know I'll need Xvfb plugin sooner or later but..
As I said, for GUI tests, I'd need Xvfb but the issue I was getting is not coming now after doing the above steps.
Final Update: Solution is to remove Jenkins job's workspace folder's data.
