Jenkins for .Net Continuous Integration (CI) Training Course
After developers complete a segment of code, they typically merge it into the application, copy the application to a folder, run the installer, and initialize it to verify correct operation. This manual workflow does not scale effectively, is tedious, highly prone to errors, and lacks a mechanism for tracking changes throughout the process.
A superior approach involves automating 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 onsite or remotely), participants will learn how to transition from a traditional, manual (or semi-manual) software deployment method to an agile Continuous Integration (CI) model using Jenkins. Participants will engage in a series of hands-on, live-lab exercises throughout the course, applying their new knowledge to various software development and deployment challenges at every stage. Interaction between the instructor and participants is encouraged, with real-world cases discussed and specific issues and questions addressed and resolved during the training. The course places a special emphasis on .NET application development.
By the end of this training, participants will be able to:
- Install and configure Jenkins for .NET application development
- Use Jenkins to automate the process of checking in and merging .NET source code into a repository
- Use Jenkins to automate the process of downloading, compiling, and deploying an application to a release server
- Integrate Jenkins with other software development tools, such as issue trackers, and
