Publish files/artifacts for failed/broken build in Hudson?

I'd like to publish certain files for each build regardless of success/failure. In my case I want to publish a report generated from a JUnit RunListener implementation we've implemented, however I would also find it useful to publish additional log files, and any other specific files I am interested in.

I开发者_如何学JAVA know TeamCity does this out of the box. Is it possible with Hudson? The DocLinks plugin and the "Archive the artifacts" checkbox only seem to work for successful builds.

Thanks in advance

The "archive the artifacts" feature kicks in even for failed builds. If it doesn't, I consider that a serious bug. Which version of Hudson are you using?

I thought so far, that Hudson marks a job as unstable instead of failed when running the junit tests.

However, If you don't want to create your own plugin, you might use a workaround. The basic idea is to hide from Hudson the initial failure and do whatever needs to be done before telling Hudson that there is a problem.

There are different approaches.

1. Always hide errors from Hudson, the job will never fail, however, the report will always be published. The disadvantage is, that you need to monitor the jobs/reports since Hudson will not tell you that there is a problem.

2. capture the error outside of Hudson, than do your publish outside of Hudson, and than tell Hudson that there was an error and let Hudson do the rest.
