In the course Continuous Integration with Jenkins participants learn how the latest version of Jenkins can be used to set up a continuous integration and continuous delivery (CI/CD) pipeline. CI/CD is a best practice in agile development where changes in the code of a software project are automatically tested and integrated.
CI/CD is part of the DevOps process whereby developers check in code regularly into a central repository and relevant tests and builds are automatically executed. Tools ensure that the new code is correct before it is integrated into the software project.
The course starts discussing the version control systems and build tools supported by Jenkins. Jenkins plugins, the Jenkins DSL and the Jenkins file are also treated.
You will learn then learn based on the Jenkins GUI and the Jenkins Dashboard, how to set up declarative and scripted pipelines in Jenkins. The role of Masters and Nodes, Agents and Executors are discussed and their relationship explained.
Attention is also paid to the triggering of jobs. Jobs can be triggered periodically or with input from the user based on parameters. Retries, timeouts, conditional and parallel execution are also on the course program.
Jenkins supports various project types such as Maven or Gradle projects, Freestyle projects, Pipeline and GitHub projects. The setup of such projects is explained as well as multibranch and external projects.
Finally various reporting options from Jenkins projects are discussed and how Jenkins and container technology such as Docker can work together.
The course Continuous Integration with Jenkins is intended for developers, testers and administrators who want to use Jenkins 2 to set up a continuous integration pipeline.
Experience with IT projects in a DevOps environment with the Agile Development methodology and Scrum is beneficial for the understanding but not strictly necessary.
The theory is discussed on the basis of presentations and demos and is interchanged with exercises. Demo projects clarify the discussed concepts. The course is done in the latest version of Jenkins, version 2. Course times are from 9.30 up and to 16.30.
After successful completion of the course the participants receive an official certificate Continuous Integration with Jenkins.

All our courses are classroom courses in which the students are guided through the material on the basis of an experienced trainer with in-depth material knowledge. Theory is always interspersed with exercises.
We also do custom classes and then adjust the course content to your wishes. On request we will also discuss your practical cases.
The course times are from 9.30 to 16.30. But we are flexible in this. Sometimes people have to bring children to the daycare and other times are more convenient for them. In good consultation we can then agree on different course times.
We take care of the computers on which the course can be held. The software required for the course has already been installed on these computers. You do not have to bring a laptop to participate in the course. If you prefer to work on your own laptop, you can take it with you if you wish. The required software is then installed at the start of the course.
Our courses are generally given with Open Source software such as Eclipse, IntelliJ, Tomcat, Pycharm, Anaconda and Netbeans. You will receive the digital course material to take home after the course.
The course includes lunch that we use in a restaurant within walking distance of the course room.
The courses are planned at various places in the country. A course takes place at a location if at least 3 people register for that location. If there are registrations for different locations, the course will take place at our main location, Houten which is just below Utrecht. A course at our main location also takes place with 2 registrations and regularly with 1 registration. And we also do courses at the customer’s location if they appreciate that.
At the end of each course, participants are requested to evaluate the course in terms of course content, course material, trainer and location. The evaluation form can be found at https://www.klantenvertellen.nl/reviews/1039545/spiraltrain?lang=en. The evaluations of previous participants and previous courses can also be found there.
