We do even better - an example from a recent PR:

https://ci.dlang.io/blue/organizations/jenkins/dlang-org%2Fphobos/detail/PR-6207/1

It's ~40 projects.

(though it's really a PITA to test all these projects because (1) 
Jenkins is a horrible piece of software and (2) some of these 
projects have randomness (and thus random failures) in their 
testsuites.)
