i am getting following error
ERROR | could not connect to server on TCP:5868: Operation timed out

The error "SDL init failure, reason is: No available video device" would suggest that the emulator isn't running in a graphical environment.
However, your log shows that a VNC server is being started. But perhaps the VNC server hasn't quite finished starting by the time the emulator starts.
You can check whether this is the case by delaying the emulator start by a few seconds.
From the Android Emulator plugin documentation:
Although the Android Emulator plugin has been designed to ensure it always runs after an Xvnc server has been started, the Xvnc plugin does not wait for the Xvnc server to be fully up-and-running before handing control over to the Android Emulator plugin.
For this reason, you may want to delay emulator startup by a few seconds (e.g. three to five), giving the Xvnc server time to finish starting-up before attempting to launch an Android emulator into it. To do so, enter the desired number of seconds in the "Startup delay" field under "Advanced" options.
Alternatively, you can untick the "Show emulator window" option in your job configuration, which won't show the emulator, and will remove the need to run a VNC server.

Android Emulator Plugin Failed to Initialize backend EGL display

I set up a Jenkins Job on Cloudbees and I can successfully checkout and compile my Android project there. Now I would like to run some JUnit tests in the android emulator and added the Android emulator plugin. I set the “Show Emulator Window“ option to false but after startup of the emulator I always get the error message: “Emulator did not appear to start; giving up”.
Has anyone experience with Android builds on Cloudbees?
