Jenkins is used by Automatics for following activities.
Automatics jenkins setup documentation can be found in the page : Automatics Jenkins Setup
For automating the deployment and parser jobs for Automatics, a new Pipeline job is introduced. What this pipeline job will do is it will invoke the existing jenkins freestyle jobs which does the deployment and API scanning in the correct order. The overview of jenkins pipeline job as well as the steps to create the Automatics pipeline job below.
Why use Jenkins pipeline?
Jenkins is an open continuous integration server which has the ability to support the automation of software development processes. You can create multiple automation jobs with the help of use cases, and run them as a Jenkins pipeline.
Here are the reasons why you use should use Jenkins pipeline:
Jenkins pipeline concept
Term | Description |
Pipeline | The pipeline is a set of instructions given in the form of code for continuous delivery and consists of instructions needed for the entire build process. With pipeline, you can build, test, and deliver the application. |
Node | The machine on which Jenkins runs is called a node. A node block is mainly used in scripted pipeline syntax. |
Stage | A stage block contains a series of steps in a pipeline. That is, the build, test, and deploy processes all come together in a stage. Generally, a stage block is used to visualize the Jenkins pipeline process. |
Step | A step is nothing but a single task that executes a specific process at a defined time. A pipeline involves a series of steps. |
