      The buildOn property for a build should not be empty.

      Set to "master" or if set to the master's label by default would be great.

      "builtOn": "",
      "buildOn": "my master label"

          The node name of the Jenkins master is the empty string (Jenkins.instance.nodeName), possibly to distinguish from slave nodes with any specific name. Not sure this should be changed as it would introduce ambiguity for users with particularly stupid slave node names.

          I think it would be more consitent to set buildOn to "master" if it was build there even if some naming ambiguities could occure for some users with "stupid" slave node names.
