How to disable a job if it failed three or more times?

Question

I want to disable a job if it fails three or more times. I found this solution to disable it immediately. But I want to wait three times.

You can get the previous result from build.previousBuild. For example:

def failingForAtLeast(build, n) {
    def failed = build.result.isWorseThan(hudson.model.Result.SUCCESS );
    if( n <= 1 ) {
        return failed;
    } else if ( failed && build.previousBuild != null) {
        return failingForAtLeast(build.previousBuild, n-1);
    } else {
        return false;
    }
}

if ( failingForAtLeast(manager.build, 3) ) {
  manager.build.project.disabled = true
}

Looks very good, I test it and accept if it is working. – jan Jul 16 '14 at 16:32

With `def failed = build.result.isWorseOrEqualTo(hudson.model.Result.FAILURE);` it's working as I wanted. Thanks! – jan Jul 18 '14 at 06:29

You forgot to mention that you need the Groovy PostBuild plugin – Cas Dec 12 '17 at 21:32
