10.4. Multiconfiguration Build Jobs


Multiconfiguration build jobs are an extremely powerful feature of Jenkins. A multiconfiguration build
job can be thought of as a parameterized build job that can be automatically run with all the possible

your application using a single build job, but under a wide variety of conditions (browsers, databases,
and so forth).
