Continuous Integration is a best practice in DevOps that involves submitting each individual code contribution to a centralized, albeit shared directory. Often done multiple times each day, this process becomes a game-changer because the bottlenecks can be identified and fixed right from the get-go.

2. What is Continuous Integration?
• Multiple coders contribute to software development projects to make them work. However,
this can be counterproductive when the contributions are not objectively verifiable.
• Continuous Integration is a best practice in DevOps that involves submitting each individual
code contribution to a centralized, albeit shared directory. Often done multiple times each
day, this process becomes a game-changer because the bottlenecks can be identified and
fixed right from the get-go.
• Automation testing is the preferred method for software testers to keep up with the pace of
development in a constantly evolving online marketplace. When combined with Continuous
Integration (CI), this becomes a lethal set-up that revolutionizes the software development
space by enhancing the collaboration, speed and ultimately, the efficiency of software
development.
• Before we move on to how Jenkins is playing an important role here, let’s find out what
Continuous Integration is and how it helps development.

3. Benefits of CI in Automation Testing
CI’s advantages are not just restricted to the product development team – it offers a slew of
benefits to the overall productivity of the organization.
•Enhanced project transparency within the team and better progress visibility to stakeholders
across the company
•Data-backed insights to the marketing teams, helping them understand various stages of
development – better grip on the market readiness and reduced time to market.
•Fostering Agile and DevOps methodologies – coders get ownership of their contribution
regardless of their location, team size and stage of development.
•Reduction in dependencies – individual codes can smoothly integrate with the codebase, without
red tapes or constant communication.

4. The Jenkins Advantage
• Picture a powerful, open-source server that provides the
basis for all CI needs. Featuring an already comprehensive
and yet ever-increasing repository of plugins, extensions
and third-party tools, Jenkins is built to support CI
framework development at all levels.
• It is built on Java and provides high-octane functionality. A
high-performance platform made on Java, Jenkins can
withstand any kind of project, no matter its complexity. No
wonder Jenkins ranks amongst the top Continuous
Integration tools available today.
