Now that the jenkins_open() method will raise a specific exception if Jenkins returns a 404, some calls to assert_job_exists() now become redundant. Since these calls represent an extra round-trip with the Jenkins server, dropping them will result in a reduction in time taken for such things as a jenkins-job run. This change eliminates the redundant calls and adjusts the tests as appropriate. Change-Id: If78dea9ad60d446854d24919bdd7f3f1fee3d733

- Copy existing jobs
- Delete jobs
- Update jobs
- Get a job's build information
- Get Jenkins master version information
- Get Jenkins plugin information
- Start a build on a job

Writing a patch
We ask that all code submissions be flake8 clean. The easiest
way to do that is to run tox
before submitting code for review in Gerrit. It will run
flake8 in the same manner as the automated test suite that
will run on proposed patchsets.
Installing without setup.py
Then install the required python packages using pip:
$ sudo pip install python-jenkins
