Introduction to Jenkins

What is Jenkins?

Jenkins is an open-source automation server widely used in the field of Continuous Integration
(CI) and Continuous Delivery (CD). It allows developers to automate the building, testing, and
deployment of software projects, making the development process more efficient and reliable.

Key features of Jenkins:

 CI/CD: Jenkins supports Continuous Integration and Continuous Deployment, allowing


developers to integrate code changes frequently and automate the deployment of applications.
 Plugins: Jenkins has a vast library of plugins that can extend its capabilities. These plugins
integrate Jenkins with version control systems (like Git), build tools (like Maven or Gradle),
testing frameworks, deployment tools, and much more.
 Pipeline as Code: Jenkins allows the creation of pipelines using Groovy-based DSL scripts
or YAML files, enabling version-controlled and repeatable pipelines.
 Cross-platform: Jenkins can run on various platforms such as Windows, Linux, macOS, and
others.
