About The Program
Jenkins helps to automate the non-human part of the whole software development process, with now common things like continuous integration, but by further empowering teams to implement the technical part of a Continuous Delivery. It is a server-based system running in a servlet container such as Apache Tomcat. It supports SCM tools including AccuRev, CVS, Subversion, Git, Mercurial, Perforce, Clearcase and RTC, and can execute Apache Ant, Apache Maven and sbt based projects as well as arbitrary shell scripts and Windows batch commands.
Course Objective
- Gain a comprehensive understanding of Jenkins and its key features.
- Learn to create and configure Jenkins jobs and pipelines for efficient software development processes.
- Master the integration of Jenkins with version control systems, build tools, and deployment platforms.
- Acquire the skills to implement continuous integration and continuous delivery (CI/CD) pipelines using Jenkins.
- Develop the ability to troubleshoot and optimize Jenkins setups for improved performance and reliability.
Program Outcome
Upon completion of a Jenkins course, participants can expect the following outcomes:
- Proficiency in setting up and configuring Jenkins for automated software builds, tests, and deployments.
- Ability to create and manage Jenkins pipelines using Scripted or Declarative syntax.
- Understanding of integrating Jenkins with version control systems, build tools, and deployment platforms.
- Competence in implementing CI/CD practices using Jenkins to achieve faster and more reliable software delivery.
- Proficient troubleshooting skills to identify and resolve common issues in Jenkins setups.
