What is Jenkins ??
Jenkins is an open-source automation server that helps automate parts of the software development process. It provides a way to create and run jobs, which can be used to automate tasks like building, testing, and deploying software. Jenkins is highly extensible and can be customized to meet the needs of different development teams and projects.
Jenkins is often used in Continuous Integration (CI) and Continuous Delivery (CD) workflows. In a CI workflow, developers frequently integrate their code changes into a shared repository, and Jenkins automatically builds and tests the code to detect any issues early in the development process. In a CD workflow, Jenkins automates the deployment of code changes to production environments after successful builds and tests.
Jenkins supports a wide range of plugins that can be used to extend its functionality. There are plugins for building and testing specific programming languages and frameworks, for integrating with version control systems and issue trackers, and for automating deployment to various cloud platforms.
