  • Rightnow, my jenkins jobs are run by Tomcat Server user.
  • I wanted it to run as User 'Admin', so i tried creating a slave and added my same jenkins machine as the slave.
  • I have also added this as a windows service, and have confiured the Admin user/pwd in the Logon Tab.
  • But still, when i run a job which executes the UI tests, i'm not able to see them running in the firefox but it runs and the screenshots are captured!

Are you asking how to have Jenkins spawn a process in your session that you can see at the monitor?

Have a look here: Open Excel on Jenkins CI, replace excel with whatever you are launching.

If you use jenkins as windows service, it won't allow GUI execution.

It only allows backgound running jobs.

If you want run UI test then stop your jenkins service , use some other way to connect your slave.
