Jenkins for .Net Continuous Integration (CI) Training Course
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
- Utilize Jenkins to automate the download, compilation, and deployment of an application to a release server
- Integrate Jenkins with other software development tools, such as issue trackers
Audience
- .NET developers
- Build engineers
- QA engineers
- Project managers
