I'm currently using the Jenkins Workflow plugin, I have a master groovy script that calls other child groovy scripts.
What would be best way to fail the build from the child script such? At the moment I'm throwing an exception from the child script but this create a lot of output in the console since it prints the whole stack trace.
Is there a cleaner way to do this? Return a certain value from the child script or set a certain object?
Use the error step, which does not print a stack trace.

Is there any way I can stop the whole robot test execution with PASS status?
For some specific reasons, I need to stop the whole test but still get a GREEN report.
Currently I am using FATAL ERROR which will raise a assertion error and return FAIL to report.
I was trying to create a user keyword to do this, but I am not really familiar with the robot error handling process, could anyone help?
There's an attribute ROBOT_EXIT_ON_FAILURE in BuiltIn.py, and I am thinking about to create another attribute like ROBOT_EXIT_ON_SUCCESS, but have no idea how to.
Environment: robotframework==3.0.2 with Python 3.6.5
There is nothing built-in to support this. By design, a fatal error will cause all remaining tests and suites to have a FAIL status.
Just about your only choice is to write a keyword that sets a global variable, and then have every test include a setup that uses pass execution if to skip the test if the flag is set.
If I understood you correctly, you need to pass the test execution forcefully and return green status for that test, is that right? You have a built in keyword "Pass Execution" for that. Did you try using that?
I have a question about the printing that I perform in Jmeter, I use
System.out.println and the consul is full with data.
the problem is that if I want in each iteration to clear the consul how can I do it?
the consul is full with data from last run, or Prev thread and I just want to clear it.
regards (it is the black consul that opened in a new window.)
You should log messages using log.info("Hello World"); (log is a script global variable) instead of using OUT in your scripts. Therefore, the logs will be sent to jmeter.log file.
See the documentation about JSR223 Sampler for more information.
For Windows you can use something like:
new ProcessBuilder('cmd', '/c', 'cls').inheritIO().start().waitFor()
For other operating system it will depend on SHELL implementation, you will need to amend the command line according to your requirements, most likely using clear command.

Groovy is the New Black
I really like being able to run Groovy scripts in Hudson (or Jenkins, but I use Hudson).
For example, see my question In Groovy, how do I get the list of parameter names for a given job? Hudson parameter names question][1]
The thing is, now I'd like use these Groovy scripts like a keyboard macro or utility. I want to be visiting one of my jobs, hit the special keystroke, and voila, the Groovy script is run. I leave it as an exercise for myself to pick up parameters from environment of current job.
Does anybody out there do this sort of thing, and if so, what strategy has been useful. So far, all I know how to do is bring up the script console, pasted in my code, edit the variable containing the name of the Hudson job, and hit "run". Kinda klunky. Suggestions appreciated.
You can use jenkins Remote access method to do this. The Jenkins wiki describes how to use Remote access:
User can execute groovy scripts remotely sending post request to
/script/ url or /scriptText/ to have response returned without the
html wrapping.
$ curl -d "script=<your_script_here>" http://jenkins/script
$ # or
$ curl -d "script=<your_script_here>" http://jenkins/scriptText
Also, Jenkins CLI offers the possibility to execute groovy
scripts remotely using groovy command or execute groovy interactivelly
via groovysh.
I'm using the Groovy Grails Tool Suite to practice Groovy. I want to run a Groovy Shell, but when I create a new shell and try to run it, I get this error:
Could not find $jarName on the class path. Please add it manually
What does this mean, and how do I resolve this?
I believe this is happening because JLine can't be found on your classpath. I submitted a PR to make the error message in this case actually useful.
I had a similar problem with this exact same message, but the reason was that I was attempting to run the script without specifying which script to run. Ensure you have the script open in the editing window and trying running it again - that got rid of the message for me.
I have a couple of post build actions that I run on my Hudson build. They are currently bash scripts, and if I want to fail the biuld from them, I just return a non-zero value. Is there a way to fail the build from another scripting language (such as groovy)? Do I just write a script that also returns non-zero? Or is there a particular plugin I need to enable this?
thanks,
Jeff
A way to do this programmatically within the Groovy script is:
throw new hudson.AbortException("Something was in my eye...")
The Groovy Postbuild Plugin seems to be what you need, and has a method called buildFailure() which sets the build result to FAILURE.
If your post build action is a standard build step (like a shell script). it is enough to exit that shell script with a non-zero value. I don't know if all scripting languages allow you to return a non-zero return value, that will then become the return value of the script (if you don't call exit or an equivalent command specifically in a script than the return value of the last executed command becomes the return value of the script).
If you have troubles with this approach, there is always the option to use the Log Parser Plugin to fail a build on error.
