This is a 2-day course which balances theory and hand-on applications that are focused on practical takeaways. This course will provide you with a comprehensive introduction to installation and management on Jenkins functions and its plugins. The course addresses the setup of freestyle, upstream or downstream projects using Jenkins. Lastly, you will be able to implement multi-branch pipeline and projects to run on build slaves.
