Webhook, pollSCM or cron?

QuizMediumAsked in: Accenture, Capgemini, Infosys, TCS, Wipro

The smoke suite should run within a minute of every push, and the full regression suite once a night. (A webhook is a message that the Git host sends to Jenkins when something happens; pollSCM makes Jenkins ask the Git host on a schedule whether there are new commits.) Which setup fits best?

  • A webhook from the Git host triggers the smoke job on each push; the regression job uses triggers { cron('H 1 * * *') }
  • Both jobs use pollSCM every minute
  • Both jobs are started by hand
  • The regression job uses upstream on the smoke job
