Continuous Integration (CI) is a software development practice where developers frequently merge their code changes into a central repository. This approach helps detect and resolve errors early in the development cycle.

During this instructor-led live training, participants will explore the fundamentals of Continuous Integration for JavaScript. Through guided steps, they will learn how to establish a CI workflow for a JavaScript project.

Upon completion of this training, participants will be capable of:

• Gaining a solid understanding of Continuous Integration principles
• Constructing a custom Continuous Integration system tailored to their JavaScript projects

Target Audience

• Software Developers
• IT Professionals
• DevOps Engineers
• Business Managers

Course Format

• A blend of lectures, group discussions, exercises, and extensive hands-on practice

This program emphasizes hands-on application and the use of relevant tools. It presupposes a solid grasp of theoretical foundations (refer to the DEVOPS course) and concentrates on the latest tools and methodologies for applying DevOps principles.

This instructor-led live training in Romania (online or onsite) is aimed at DevOps engineers who wish to optimize and simplify the CI/CD process with Docker and Jenkins.

By the end of this training, participants will be able to:

• Automate code delivery and pipeline deployment with Jenkins.
• Build an application using Docker and Dockerfile.
• Configure authentication options to strengthen security.

This instructor-led, live training in Romania (online or onsite) is aimed at engineers who wish to use Jenkins 2 to build pipelines that automate the process of moving an application from development to production.

By the end of this training, participants will be able to:

• Install and configure Jenkins 2.
• Adopt a script approach to automating every step of the software deployment process.
• Automatically generate application builds when software is checked into a version control system.
• Automatically kick off the compiling, testing, and packaging of a software application.
• Quickly respond to notifications and reports when things go wrong.
• Install additional plugins to extend Jenkins.

This instructor-led, live training Romania (online or on-site) covers advanced Jenkins configurations, security, and scaling techniques, and is aimed at DevOps engineers and software architects who wish to gain expertise in customizing Jenkins for complex software projects.

By the end of this training, participants will be able to:

• Optimize Jenkins for enterprise-level software projects.
• Implement advanced security measures.
• Build complex and scalable pipelines.
• Troubleshoot and maintain Jenkins installations effectively.

Once developers complete a segment of code, the typical workflow involves integrating that code into the application, copying the application to a specific folder, executing the installer, and then initializing the application to verify its functionality. This manual method struggles to scale, is labor-intensive, highly prone to errors, and lacks mechanisms for tracking changes throughout the process.

A more effective solution is to automate this workflow through Continuous Integration. Continuous Integration encompasses the processes, tools, and infrastructure required to automate the building, deployment, and testing of software applications.

In this instructor-led live training, available both onsite and remotely, participants will learn how to shift from a traditional, manual (or semi-manual) software deployment model to an agile Continuous Integration (CI) approach using Jenkins. Throughout the course, participants engage in hands-on, live laboratory exercises, applying their newfound knowledge to solve various software development and deployment challenges at every stage. The session encourages active interaction between the instructor and participants. Real-world case studies are discussed, and specific issues and questions are addressed and resolved during the training. The course places a particular emphasis on .NET application development.
 
Upon completion of this training, participants will be able to:

• Install and configure Jenkins for .NET application development
• Leverage Jenkins to automate the check-in and merging of .NET source code into a repository
