Since junit-1.2, neither the "Latest Test Result" information nor the "Test Result Trend" plot appear on the project page _if there is not at least one build in non-failed state.

See screenshots below for an example: after deleting unstable build #11, the abovementioned items disappear.

The problem did not exist when the plugin was still included in Jenkins (1.576), nor does it exist in versions 1.0 and 1.1 of the plugin. I suspect that this behaviour was introduced with commit 4ba5a49 ("JENKINS-23713 Compatibility with SimpleBuildStep."), but unfortunately I cannot find the exact root cause within that commit.

This problem is not only related to the JUnit plug-in. In general, every plug-in that has been migrated its actions to a SimpleBuildStep has this problem. The affected source code is in SimpleBuildStep.

A test case that exposes this bug is WarningsPluginTest#should_not_skip_failed_builds_with_option_run_always
