How to specify duration of job execution?

Question

Jenkins

I have a telephony load emulation server. And there is also Jenkins from which people want to run the load. To do this, I used the SSH plugin, which runs scripts on the load server. But since the load should not be given for different times, I would like to understand whether it is possible to specify the duration parameter in the job settings. Or should we forget about it?

Answer 1

Lots of options.

• Best when using pipeline https://jenkins.io/doc/pipeline/steps/workflow-bas...
  
• Implement a timeout in your script
  
• For classic Job https://wiki.jenkins.io/display/JENKINS/Build-time...
