But the file was generate in the workspace.
You can add other Build Task like windows batch command task to rename the file like:
rem Rename the file result index.html to index-%BUILD_NUMBER%.html
ren index.html index-%BUILD_NUMBER%.html
You can also copy file result to you prefered location

First of all, I wish to thank you very much for a usefull plugin!
I have a following question. The plugins provides a possibility to specify a URL to the suiteFile (e.g. in my case http://localhost/testslib/html/Login.html). As I understand a local copy of the suite file is created and executed. Unfortunately, I never succeeded to run a test providing an URL to the suiteFile because the test files (linked from the suite file) seem not to be downloaded. All I see the following error in the test's iframe of the TestRunner:
HTTP ERROR: 404
Not foundRequestURI=/selenium-server/tests/tests/login.html
Powered by Jetty://
Help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you in advance,
Daniel Tkatch

I have a usage question. We are doing something like this but not so nicely integrated into Hudson. We run the selenium tests with ant and then parse the html file into Junit style reports.
What I would like to do is to simply use what you have developed and run my TestSuite.html from the Hudson dashboard rather then the build script, it will make the process much more flexible and easy to use. What I don't understand is how to pass some extra parameters to the "SeleniumHQ htmlSuite Run" build step.
How would I do that? Here is a listing of the parameters:
haltonfailure="true"
multiWindow="true"
timeoutInSeconds="3000"
firefoxProfileTemplate="/firefox-https-profile"
http://release.seleniumhq.org/selenium-remote-control/0.9.2/doc/server/org/openqa/selenium/server/ant/SeleneseAntTask.html

-timeout 3000 -firefoxProfileTemplate "/firefox-https-profile"
This parameter are added in command line exexute by the build step, see job log for complete command execute by the build step
Ex: java -jar selenium-server.jar -timeout 15600 -firefoxProfileTemplate "/firefox-https-profile" -htmlSuite «browser» «startURL» «suiteFile» «resultFile»
multiWindow is default option when run with selenium-server-1.0-beta-2
I think of selenium-server-1.0-beta-2 have no parameter for haltonfailure!

1-In a batch window of Windows paste the command and run
2-Check the test start - execute and end normally
3-Check the result file
Y receive the same error SeleniumCommandTimedOutException when the selenium test not starded correctly by selenium-server.
Or the test need human action to make test continue.
Other cause, your testsuite is to long to execute
add extract param in other box of plugin like '-timeout 7200' for a timeout of 2 hours
The log you write say the SeleniumHq plugin run correctly but the selenium-server.jar not make the result file correctly because he reach a timeout.

I did a stupid mistake that I had given Testcase file instead of Testsuite file in config page of Hudson job, so it was not running.
Now all working fine.
In future if any body faces same problem I had, Please ask them to check whether it is Testsuite or Testcase in the config page of a Hudson job
Thanks for the support

I aknowledge the lack of a fileset attribute is a problem from selenium HQ, not the plugin so I should rather contribute to them. What do you think?

You can also make custom task in Ant Task, and contribute your work in selenium HQ.
I think the second option is better in you case. (Many people, have same requirement)

For people they not use Ant the first option is better.

My example: two builds complete closely in time, both start (different) SeleniumHQ smoketests using *iexplore, with a 90% probability neither of the test won't complete to success. After this:

nothing happens. A fantom iexplore.exe process is reported by the task manager; all further attempts to run SeleniumHQ steps with *iexplore also fail until this process is killed.
Workarounds:
1. Spread the SeleniumHQ runs in time. Ensure no overlapping.
2. Use the Build Timeout plugin to abort the stuck job. I'm not sure whether this will correctly kill the stuck browser process though.

Question closed (follow the answer of Selenium Grid team)
Currently, the only robust solution for running multiple IE instances on a single machine with Selenium Grid is to use virtualization (multiple VMs, a single IE instance per VM).

The selenium-server.jar need to be installed in exactly same directory configured in (via Manage Hudson -> Configure System)
How do create a selenium test suite that will make the slave be able to locate each tests (currently path are relative in TestSuite file) ?
Normaly each tests of the test suite need to be in http server you test (startUrl)
