Did you know you can parameterize your jobs?

Especially helpful for automation

You can parameterize things like the app version / browser / DB / automation framework parameters from within Jenkins

Scheduled job runs will have default values selected every time they run

For manual job runs you can choose to select options from drop downs

The benefit:

All execution resources / environments management and results are centralized

Setting up new run routines or special case quick runs makes a big difference

And the kicker is the visibility you get from all the results in one place and accessible to all
