In this 1-hour long project-based course, you will learn the fundamentals of continuous integration/continuous delivery, and how to create an automated deployment pipeline using Jenkins. Through practical hands-on lessons, you'll understand the different Jenkins configurations required for creating the pipeline, including setting up a build tool, installing plugins, and writing the pipeline code. You'll also learn the difference between declarative and scripted pipeline syntax, and how to version control your pipeline by adding a Jenkinsfile to a source control repository. We'll apply these skills to build an end-to-end software delivery pipeline that builds, tests, and deploys a Java spring application. This project will help aspiring DevOps engineers to understand how an automated CI/CD pipeline is implemented in a real-world scenario. To make the most out of this project, it is recommended to have a basic understanding of Maven goals and phases, and the Linux commands to execute them.
