Is there a way to use Jenkins with Github Pull Requests?

Question

I want Jenkins to automatically find and run the test suite for every branch that is part of an open pull request. Is this possible with some Jenkins plugin I have not found?

Answer 1

If you happen to be using Cloudbees, they offer their own pull request builder plugin.

The advantages they tout over the standard Jenkins Github pull request builder is that it runs as a "tenant-isolate" program, preventing the code in the pull request from snooping around for passwords or ssh keys. I could see this being particularly useful for a public project.
