Error occured in this method :

public void compute(Job job) {
List<Run> builds = job.getBuilds();
for (Run build : builds)

{ if (build.getResult().isBetterOrEqualTo(Result.SUCCESS)) addSuccess(); else if (build.getResult().isBetterOrEqualTo(Result.UNSTABLE)) addUnstable(); else if (build.getResult().isBetterOrEqualTo(Result.FAILURE)) addFail(); }

}

build.getResult() seems to be null.
I've made a groovy script to find job where a build can have a null result :

Jenkins.instance.items.findAll

{job -> job.isBuildable()}

.each{ Job job ->
if(job.getBuilds() != null) {
for (Run build : job.getBuilds()) {
if(build.getResult() == null)

{ println "('"+build.number+"') null : " + job.name }

}
}
}

All resulting jobs are currently building.

It seems that the plugin don't check if the job is currently building, that result in a NullPointerException here.
