Build Java Web Apps with Jenkins CI/CD

Modern software development demands efficient, automated processes to deliver applications quickly and reliably. Manual build and deployment steps are time-consuming and prone to errors, hindering productivity and release cycles. This course provides a clear, step-by-step pathway to mastering Continuous Integration (CI) and Continuous Delivery (CD) for Java applications using Jenkins, empowering you to streamline your development workflow. By the end of this course, you will possess the foundational knowledge and practical experience to design, implement, and maintain robust CI/CD pipelines. You will be able to automate the entire software delivery process, from code commit to deployment, ensuring higher quality software and faster release cycles. What you'll learn: * Understand the core principles of Continuous Integration and Continuous Delivery (CI/CD) * Set up and configure a Jenkins server and its essential plugins * Implement automated build pipelines for Java web applications using popular build tools * Integrate automated testing into Jenkins pipelines to ensure code quality * Configure deployment stages for Java applications to various target environments * Apply "Pipeline as Code" principles by defining Jenkins pipelines using Groovy scripts * Practice fundamental security and credential management within Jenkins The course begins with an introduction to CI/CD concepts and Jenkins fundamentals, guiding you through the setup of a Jenkins environment. You will then learn to construct automated pipelines for a sample Java web application, covering compilation, testing, and deployment strategies. This structured approach ensures a solid understanding of each component. This course is designed for beginner Java developers, quality assurance engineers, and aspiring DevOps practitioners with no prior experience in Jenkins or CI/CD. No prerequisites are required.
