Jenkins

 Jenkins is a tool that is used for automation. It is mainly an open-source server that allows all the developers to build, test and deploy software. It is written in Java and runs on java only. By using Jenkins we can make a continuous integration of projects(jobs) or end-to-endpoint automation

What Is Jenkins?

Jenkins facilitates the automation of several stages of the software development lifecycle, including application development, testing, and deployment. Operating within servlet containers like Apache Tomcat, the technology is server-based.Continuous delivery (CD) and integration (CI) pipelines can be created and managed with Jenkins. The development, testing, and deployment of software applications are automated using CI/CD pipelines. You will be able to release software more regularly and with fewer problems if you do this.

  1. jenkins is flexible.
  2. You can add the n no.of plugins you want to add to the jenkins.
  3. You can automate the proceses of CI/CD pipelines of all the projects.

What is Jenkins CI/CD Pipeline?

Jenkins CI/CD stands for Continuous Integration/ Continuous Deployment first let us try to understand what is a pipeline. In computing, a pipeline is a set of stages or processes linked together to form a processing system. Each stage in the pipeline takes an input, processes it in accordance with a set of rules, and then sends the outputs to the stage that follows. Frequently, the pipeline’s overall output is its final step’s output. like the procedures outlined below

  1. Test code
  2. Build Application
  3. Push Repository
  4. Deploy to Server

All the steps mentioned above will perform in sequence one after the other if any step/stage get failed it will not move forward to another step/stage until the previous step got a success.


What is Jenkins Continuous Integration (CI)?

Jenkins Continuous integration means whenever new code is committed to remote repositories like GitHub, GitLab, etc. CI will continuously build, tested, and merged into a shared repository.

Benefits of Continuous Integration (CI)

  • We can maintain the reports of the projects
  • Deployments can be made within the given time
  • Bugs can be found quickly.

What is Jenkins Continuous Deployment/Delivery (CD)?

Continuous Deployment

Continuous Deployment means automating the further stages of the pipeline automatically or manually deploying the application/code to different environments like Dev, Test, and Production. Automating the build is the main component of Continuous Integration and Continuous Deployment.

Continuous Delivery

Each and every build that passed all automated tests and was able to be fully automated and delivered into production only required one click of human intervention is called Continuous Delivery.

What Is Jenkins Freestyle Project?

Jenkins freestyle project is an configuration and options based project which will allows you to build,test, and deploy the application with automation by selecting the required configuration based on the requirement following are the some of the available in the freestyle project.

  1. Building and testing code
  2. Packaging applications
  3. Deploying applications to production servers
  4. Running reports
Let's deep dive on this : Pipeline

  Terraform is an infrastructure as code tool that lets you build, change, and version cloud and on-prem resources safely and efficiently. HashiCorp Terraform is an infrastructure as code tool that lets you define both cloud and on-prem resources in human-readable configuration files that you can version, reuse, and share. You can then use a consistent workflow to provision and manage all of your infrastructure throughout its lifecycle. Terraform can manage low-level components like compute, storage, and networking resources, as well as high-level components like DNS entries and SaaS features. How does Terraform work? Terraform creates and manages resources on cloud platforms and other services through their application programming interfaces (APIs). Providers enable Terraform to work with virtually any platform or service with an accessible API. HashiCorp and the Terraform community have already written  thousands of providers  to manage many different types of resources...

Different Types of Reports in Scrum - Agile

Image
  Introduction to Agile Reporting I’m not going to elaborate on the Agile Framework itself here.  1. Sprint Burndown At a Sprint-level, the burndown presents the  easiest way to track and report status  (the proverbial  Red / Amber / Green ), i.e., whether your Sprint is on or off-track, and what are the chances of meeting the Sprint goals. The burndown chart – when used right – can provide  near-real time updates  on Sprint progress. “If your team do it right, then they would take in just the right amount of work into a sprint.” At the beginning of a Sprint, the Scrum team perform Sprint Planning and agree to take on development work worth a certain number of Story points. This forms the basis for the Sprint Burndown chart. The total story points agreed at the beginning of the sprint make up the y-axis, and the individual dates in the Sprint make up x-axis. If your team do it right, then they would take in just the right amount of work into ...

Understanding the MoSCoW prioritization | How to implement it into your project Projects, irrespective of their size or complexity, often juggle numerous tasks and requirements. In such a scenario,  MoSCoW prioritization  becomes essential to ensure the successful completion of the project.  Besides, it is also a very effective way to manage project priorities. With a straightforward and adaptable approach, the MoSCoW method helps manage stakeholder expectations and improve project outcomes. What is the MoSCoW prioritization technique?  The MoSCoW method is a prioritization matrix widely used in project management and software development. The term MoSCoW is an acronym that stands for  Must have ,  Should have ,  Could have , and  Won’t have , each denoting a level of priority. Here is the breakdown of the MoSCoW method:  Must have:  These are critical requirements that the project cannot be completed withou...
