+    Batch tasks can be tasks for events like releases, integration, archiving,
+    etc. In this way, anyone in the project team can execute them in a way that
+    leaves a record.
+
+    A batch task consists of a shell script and a name. When you execute
+    a build, the shell script gets run on the workspace, just like a build.
+    Batch tasks and builds "lock" the workspace, so when one of those
+    activities is in progress, all the others will block in the queue.
+
+    Requires the Jenkins `Batch Task Plugin.
