The builds that appear in the Run Parameter selection box have a few limited filtering options (All, Completed, Successful, Stable). However, build artifacts can evolve well beyond these categories over a period of time, such that a build artifact is no longer suitable for usage as a build run parameter even if it's build completed or was successful. It would be useful to be able to combine these build categories with a minimal and/or maximal build number that is acceptable for inclusion as a run parameter in the current job. This would allow for a single job form to be reused over a much longer period of time by simply changing the filter of acceptable builds. Otherwise we observe that some form of versioning of the jobs and their forms has to be maintained so that appropriate job parameters can be matched. We are developing bioinformatic workflows based on Jenkins, so that artifacts represent various analysis results/data structures which over time may be or may not be suitable for downstream processing.
