Questions on Jenkins Server

Regarding the test execution machine to trigger build XML for the dashboard (2 Core and 8GB for Jenkins, with ant and git plugin), can this be shared for different teams/applications?

Can you also confirm, that this machine will have a copy of the automated scripts? And if this is shared with different application teams, everyone will have access to the test scripts for all applications?

Responses -

1- Yes, it can be shared with different applications or teams, just change the product/environment to differentiate results.

2- Workspaces are created for each pipeline, and it gets saved there as a temp folder right and we don't know how long it stays there is a plugin called workspace clean up plugin, that can be configured to clean up workspaceshttps://computingforgeeks.com/automatically-clean-up-jenkins-workspace-after-builds-complete/#:~:text=Login%20to%20Jenk[…]20tab%20below%20the%20page

3- yes, I think everyone will have that access, again depends on 2

Jenkins sharing guidance

Sharing a Jenkins host is supported when teams isolate workspaces, credentials, scripts, and AIQ environments. Grant access according to team ownership and remove temporary workspaces after builds when they may contain source code or secrets. Keep the Jenkins controller and execution agents sized for the combined workload rather than relying only on the minimum example sizing.
