Jenkins 1.616, Xcode 6.2, Mac OS 10.9 & 10.10
After upgrading our core system to 1.608 (through 1.606) from 1.601, our unit tests have started to hang. They compile fine, but hang when trying to start the simulator.
This was working fine in 1.601.
When running the command in terminal on the local machine, the tests run fine, but run from the JNLP service it hangs. Jenkins seems unable to start the simulator.
The command we have been using is:
/usr/bin/xcodebuild -scheme <SCHEME> -sdk iphonesimulator8.2 -workspace /Users/Shared/Jenkins/Home/workspace/iOS.xcworkspace -configuration Debug build test -destination "platform=iOS Simulator,name=iPhone 5,OS=8.2"
We subsequently upgraded the Xcode plugin from 1.4.5 -> 1.4.8 -> 1.4.5 -> 1.4.8 and found no change. Also, we re-downloaded the JNLP agent and removed/re-installed a build node to try and isolate that too.
[Edit] Added in more specific version information

to 1.608 (through 1.606)
Still not sure what that means, sorry.
It would help if you could narrow down to the specific Jenkins version this issue appeared in. Note that downgrading to before 1.607 will lose slave config information as noted in the changelog.

added a comment - Yes, we are aware that there could be issues downgrading.
We upgraded from 1.601 where this was working.
We then upgraded to 1.606 as per the security notification, and subsequently upgraded to 1.608 to make sure we were using the latest version of the server.
Does that make more sense?

added a comment - This issue is still present with Jenkins 1.616.
It's a fairly critical issue and we are investigating alternatives to Jenkins as a result.
Any chance of this being fixed?

added a comment - This has been a serious problem for us too; for months we have not been able to run our UTs via Jenkins. Apple seems to blame Jenkins and seems not interested in this scenario. We are looking at moving away from Jenkins for iOS builds.

added a comment - This is a most probably a bug in Xcode 6.2. See http://stackoverflow.com/questions/25380365/timeout-when-running-xcodebuild-tests-under-xcode-6-via-ssh
Can be worked around by "converting your Jenkins configuration from being a LaunchDaemon to being a LaunchAgent"

Was Jenkins core the only component that has been updated? No OS X, Xcode, Jenkins plugin updates?
Please specifically mention the core version this still worked with.
