Tools page doesn't prevent submission of empty tool names. Some tools (e.g. Allure Commandline) use `Util.fixEmptyAndTrim` on the name, so there is a possibility of NPE when comparing the tool names. By flipping the comparison we avoid NPE since `tool` step requires `name` argument.

please file bugs for the plugins that support null or the blank string then that you are aware of (or a general one for Jenkins core to prevent this - but this would break those tools installation definitions if/when merged without plugin changes). |
