Journey to DevOps — Jenkins

Jenkins Logo

Today, I will be talking about an amazing open source tool for basically doing any customised automation you can imagine. Yes! that is the power of Jenkins.

When I was first introduced with Jenkins, the first thing I configured was a freestyle job which did nothing except printing “Hello World”.

I followed Wes Higbee’s Pluralsight course Jenkins Getting Started which covered all things needed for Jenkins and prepared me to work on the tasks in my project.

Although, the course is an introductory course, it gives a clear idea regarding the capabilities of Jenkins and what it can do.

Here’s the link to the course if you want to check it out: https://app.pluralsight.com/library/courses/jenkins-2-getting-started/table-of-contents

In the coming weeks, I will be sharing what I was working on last 3 months and will try to be consistent in creating blogs to help you on your devops journey.
