title: How to do Jenkins with Selenium and Internet Explorer
body: <p>Maybe because most build servers are linux and so irrelevant or most people use slaves, but I'm finding not much information for this problem. </p>
  
  <p>I have a jenkins server on Windows Server 2012. I'm trying to run Selenium tests on it(for a Vaadin app if it matters). It's great under Chrome and Firefox, but for IE it doesn't seem to want to do anything. This works fine on the desktop. Some investigation found the selenium site saying the Selenium IE WebDriver doesn't work under services. Fine so I tried to run it from the command line(java -jar jenkins.war), but when I start jenkins it doesn't have any of my existing jobs.</p>
  
  <p>So I have one multipart question: (1) What's the best way to do selenium tests for IE on jenkins? and (2) if it's to start jenkins from the command line, what's the best way to do that? </p>
