The document presents a discussion on Continuous Integration (CI) and its transformative role in organizations, emphasizing that CI is not solely about releases but about enhancing collaboration and bug detection. It highlights Jenkins as a pivotal automation tool utilized in CI and Continuous Delivery (CD), showcasing its capabilities and ecosystem. The presentation outlines the importance of integrating testing throughout the software development lifecycle and encourages adopting CI practices to improve software quality.

3. Outline
• Continuous Integration Basics
• CI is not just about releases
• A new set of challenges
• Sauce Labs Demo – Take control
• Introduction to Jenkins
• The future of integration / release
• Q / A

4. What is CI
Automatic builds of the entire application, into integration environments. Location for
automated and manual testing by the entire team. 99.9% of companies can benefit from CI.
Goal
• Find bugs faster – DUH
• Safe playground
• Move testing earlier in the pipeline
Tools for the Job
• Infrastructure as code
• Release Management
• Automated Testing and Reporting

5. A Cinderella Story

6. That is not all CI does
• First line of defense
• Get to the fun stuff sooner
• Better communication – The “Code” cafe
• Oversight and Learning
• Continuous Documentation
• On-boarding for Continuous Delivery or Deployment

7. If it doesn’t hurt it’s not worth doing
• People
• Infrastructure
• Test Grids
• Integration
• Contamination
• Metrics
Plenty of answers. Just don’t wait.

10. What Is the Next Step?
• Continuous Integration is definitely a game changer
• So, what is the next step?
• DevOps is a Journey - there are many steps along the way
• Every Journey needs a guide!

13. Life with Jenkins!

14. Testing Spectrum – a Critical Step
Unit Tests
Integration

15. Continuous Delivery – the next step
Continuous Delivery takes the automation focus to new areas
… Up the testing spectrum, across silos
… To the release and deployment teams
And treats the SDLC as a Pipeline

16. Isn’t Jenkins a CI tool?
Jenkins isn’t a Continuous Integration tool…
Nor a Continuous Delivery tool.
Jenkins is an automation tool.
The industry was using Jenkins for CI...
and now the industry is using Jenkins for CD.
… but it hasn’t always been an easy road.

17. Introducing Jenkins Workflow

18. Jenkins Workflow
stage 'build' {
checkout([$class: 'GitSCM’, userRemoteConfigs: [[url: 'https://repo/project.git']]])
sh 'mvn clean install'
}
stage ’unit-test' {
sh 'mvn verify'
}
stage 'functional-test' {
build 'sauce-labs-project'
input message: ’Did the Sauce tests pass?', submitter: 'quality-assurance-team'
}
stage 'deploy' {
sh 'puppet apply manifest.pp'
}
