jenkins

                                    Jenkins automates building, testing,
reporting, packaging, staging, deploying
the application by using plugins.
Jenkins offers a simple way to set up a
continuous integration or continuous 
delivery environment for almost any 
combination of languages and source code
repositories using pipelines, as well as
automating other routine development tasks.
While Jenkins doesn’t eliminate the need
to create scripts for individual steps, 
it does give you a faster and more robust
way to integrate your entire chain of build,
test and deployment tools than you can 
easily build yourself.

                                     Jenkins is
1) Open source automation server
2) Helps to automate the non-human part of
the software development process
3) Allows continuous integration
5) In my company Port is 8081 localhost
 To run my project in Jenkins
1) I need  to Login Jenkins account
2) I need to Create freestyle project
3) after that Install plugins -cucumber report and git
4) Under source code management I choose git and paste git url
5) I Build trigger and I choose to build periodically
6) Invoke top-level maven
2. Goals; clean verify -
Drunner=smoke_runner.xml
7) Under post-build actions
1. Choose cucumber reports
2. Choose editable email notify
8) Editable email notification

2. Click advanced settings
9) Failure-Any
1. Click advanced
2. Recipient list - email address who will
receive the report. Add comma if multiple
3. Click add trigger - like failure always
4. Attach build log; select attach build log
5. Save
10) Final Step

gives your cucumber report

                                    Continuous Integration and Deployment tool. 3 components ofJenkins
○ 1. Code change à Devs makes changes to the applicationcode
○ 2. Test à CI tool automatically picks up the changes and tests the application
○ 3. Deploy à CI tool deploys the application with changes

                                    In my company we have DevOps/Operations Support team who is responsible 
for maintaining jenkins.
 Those installed and configured jenkins. for deployments etc. They work with 
  developers to create jobs for building and deploying the applications.
 For creating smoke tests, they work with automation engineers
