How start identical jobs with different parameters in parallel execution?

I have a build job and a test job parameters.

I want to be after the build job, simultaneously run test job with one parameter and the same test job with different parameters in parallel execution.

                build job  
                   |  
                  / \  
         test job    test job
   with one params    with other params
            |             |

How to accomplish this and whether it is possible to perform without having to write your own plugin?

Thanks!

Solution

  • When you create your test job, create it as a "Build multi-configuration project" While configuring the job select "Configuration Matrix" then "User-defined axis"

    You can use the name of this axis as a parameter in your job. the given parameters will be started simultaneous in different jobs. (if enough executors are available)
