One of the nice things about Hudson is that it is stable. Perhaps
it is stable because it doesn't run buggy plugins? I don't know.
In my opinion, supporting buggy applications is a non-starter.
Jenkins by itself is pretty stable. But it's true that (just like
Eclipse or any pluggable application in general), the quality of the
available plugins is variable.
With that being said, I agree validating PRs from GitHub would be
beneficial. Perhaps instead of a Hudson plugin we could consider a
GitHub hook, which could invoke some process on Hudson. Maybe we
can be wild and crazy, and have Gerrit mirror Github and leverage
the Gerrit tooling. Who knows.
IMO, the simplest thing from usage POV would be a Hudson plugin.
But indeed, we could think of a hook on GitHub that would use Hudson
API to start a job (giving PR # and commitId as parameters) on
Hudson.
It
would perhaps be a good idea to file a bug against CBI so that we
can investigate alternatives. Please don't assume that this will
happen soon, though, as our resources for doing such work are
severely constrained.
