Your software development project needs a butler. Why? Your development team may be guilty of writing great code while only sporadically testing it, and pushing your code-base to production is tedious at best. Enter Continuous Integration with Jenkins. Learn how this development methodology and open source project can improve your software development process by consistently and continuously automating your software projects’ integration, testing, and deployment. I will walk you through a scenario of setting up a project using Jenkins. This course will conclude with a hands-on lab incorporating a GitHub project into an automated Jenkins Build Pipeline.
Who should attend:
DevOps administrators in need of sanity when testing and deploying software
Lab requirements: Each participant in this class will need a laptop with two virtual machines preinstalled with any Jenkins-compatible Linux distribution.
