Hudson Build-Time Trend Plugin?

Question

Is there a plugin which would allow me to create a \"trend\" graph for a hudson build which shows the build time for that project?

I\'m tasked with speeding up the build

Answer 1

To follow up from the @Pascal's answer, if you would like to bring this graph and show it more prominently you can edit the job description and add an image directly there

<img src="http://test.vlc/job/flow_tester/buildTimeGraph/png" />

That way you can see the time trend every time you open the job.

Answer 2

This is supported out of the box: http://SERVER/hudson/job/JOBNAME/buildTimeTrend

Answer 3

To follow up from the @Jamie Cooks's answer, you don't need to provide full url for this graph, you can just use the relative path like this in your job description -

<img src='buildTimeGraph/png' />

Benefit of this is that you don't need to change/customize the url for each job.

Moreover, to enable this on all your jobs you can use this groovy script

import hudson.model.*
import hudson.maven.*
import hudson.tasks.*

for(item in Hudson.instance.items) 
{
  println("job $item.name")
  item.setDescription("<img src='buildTimeGraph/png' />");
}
