Jenkins: 1.551
Tap: 1.18
The "fail the build if no test results are present" option doesn't fail the job. The tap results file exists and contains a single string (not test results).
TAP Reports Processing: START Looking for TAP results report in workspace using pattern: js_unittest_results.txt Saving reports...

EXPECTED BEHAVIOR:
The build fails based on not finding any tap test results.
[JENKINS-22250] "fail the build if no test results are present" option doesn't fail the job.
Changed option text to "Fail the build if no test results (files) are found"
Added a help file, with the following text:
This option fails the build when no test results (files) are found. So if your job is
configured to look for *.tap files, but when the plug-in looks at the workspace it
cannot find any .tap file, and this option is checked, then your build will be marked
as failure. If you have empty .tap, they still count, and the plug-in will not fail the build.
Code changed in jenkins

Righto. So I believe we need to update the documentation.
This option only fails the build if no files are found, matching your glob pattern.
If you configure your job to search for *.t files, and there are no files, and this option has been enabled, then your job will fail. If there any file, even if only several lines with comments, it won't fail the job, since it found a file matching the pattern.
