    Getting Started with Jenkins

    Jenkins is a self-contained Java-based program used for Continuous Integration. The tool supports Windows, Mac OS X, and Unix-like operating systems.  Jenkins is mainly used as Continuous Integration and Continuous Delivery automation(CI/CD) server. It can also be used as a simple CI server or turned into a continuous delivery hub for any project. Jenkins is designed to automate the build, test, and deploy cycle or phases of any software project.
