Thanks for working on this.
I think that the XML output you posted looks like JUnit XML,
so this will make it a lot easier to integrate into Jenkins.

If you are familiar with how to fork a github repo and do a pull request,
then the next steps would be:

(1)  Fork the https://github.com/freebsd/freebsd-ci repo.
(2)  Make a directory in this repo:  scripts/java
(3)  Put your scripts in that directory  (make sure that all your files
have
       a copyright, preferably 2-clause BSD), and commit and push to github.
(4)  Do a pull request

We can then integrate that into the main freebsd/freebsd-ci repository,
and do the final work of integrating into Jenkins.
