Jenkins for .Net Continuous Integration (CI) Training Course
Upon completing the coding phase, developers typically integrate their code into an application, copy it into a directory, execute the installation process, and then launch the application to ensure it functions as intended. This manual method is not scalable, can be monotonous, error-prone, and lacks mechanisms for tracking changes throughout the development lifecycle.
A more efficient approach involves automating these processes through Continuous Integration (CI). CI encompasses the tools, infrastructure, and procedures required to automate building, deploying, and testing software applications.
In this instructor-led training session (conducted either on-site or remotely), participants will learn how to transition from a traditional manual (or semi-manual) approach to software deployment into an agile Continuous Integration model using Jenkins. Throughout the course, participants engage in hands-on lab exercises, applying their newly acquired skills to various software development and deployment challenges. Interaction between the instructor and participants is encouraged, with real-world scenarios discussed and specific issues addressed and resolved during the training. The focus of this training is particularly on .Net application development.
By the end of this course, participants will be able to:
- Set up and configure Jenkins for .Net application development
- Leverage Jenkins to automate the process of committing and merging .Net source code into a repository
- Utilize Jenkins to automate downloading, compiling, and deploying an application to a release server
- Integrate Jenkins with other software development tools such as issue trackers and more
Audience
