As you have written Jenkins:

Please also see the Dub enabled Jenkins pipeline library: 
https://forum.dlang.org/thread/ljuosdnorythkosdrtyp@forum.dlang.org

Also the generic issue scanner plugin of Jenkins is now able to

The generic code coverage plugin of Jenkins will be in the very 
next future be  able to read LST files ;)
