    • In Detail

    Jenkins is an open source continuous integration tool written in Java, which can be installed on many operating systems and supports a myriad of tools and technologies. This means that it provides tremendous value to those comfortable or interested in other operating systems and/or technologies.This comprehensive course is designed to show you how to setup and run a Jenkins CI server starting with continuous inspection (build, test and analysis), all the way through to continuous deployment. It provides you with a strong foundation for implementing continuous inspection, continuous integration, continuous delivery, and even continuous deployment at your company or studio. We’ll also cover how to use Jenkins as an artifact repository which is used to store the build artifacts, like jars and wars, after successful builds. This is particularly useful when integrating Jenkins with other tools in a more comprehensive software delivery strategy. Jenkins can do so much more than simply building, which we’ll understand as we hook up a standard set of unit testing and quality analysis tools for Java projects.In order to keep the course short and to-the-point, it has been carefully crafted in order to provide a complete path from CI to CD.
