Our Jenkins config just runs llvm-lit manually after building (we use Ninja not make in Jenkins because it's vastly faster for incremental builds and we have several LLVM forks / versions that we test).  I agree that having a make / ninja target for the check would be useful, but the lit option was the minimum work we needed to get the pretty graphs out of Jenkins (and, more importantly, the regression emails).

Note that Jenkins doesn't have a default location for the XML file either, so we end up specifying this in the llvm-lit command and in the Jenkins config.  It might be nice for the check-all-xml (or whatever) target to put it in a fixed location so people configuring Jenkins just need to tell it where to look in one place.
