How to bypass batch error step in Jenkins project-CodePudding

I have a Jenkins project in which i run a sonarqube analysis in a windows OS.

In jenkins , I created a batch step more or less like this:

mycommand test --machine --coverage > tests.output
sonar-scanner

mycommand is a 3rd party plugin which i can't modify , and, based on the content of the project , this step can fail and I want the jenkins queue to go on with the other command .

Now if mycommand return an error jenkins stop.

How can I achieve this?

CodePudding user response：

The magic here is in the return code from your command. Without knowing what it is and what it does, the important thing is that if any command returns non-zero exit code Jenkins will see the command as failed. To prevent any errors from being registered by Jenkins add exit 0 to the command.

For example

bat """
mycommand test --machine --coverage > tests.output || exit /b 0
"""
bat """
sonar-scanner
"""

Should work for this.

Alternatively you can also chain the commands together with & so Jenkins doesn't check the exit codes before everything is completed, but then the second command will also always show as passed regardless of its real status. Also it can become difficult to read with lengthy command chains.

bat """
mycommand test --machine --coverage > tests.output & sonar-scanner & exit /b 0
"""
