Jenkins is a tool used for CI / CD. Are you wondering what is CI and CD? Ok let me explain that first.
Continuous Integration (CI) is a process of integrating code changes from multiple developers in a single project .The code is tested immediately after the changes or commit, Whenever the code is committed , the code is built and tested.
Continuous Deployment / Delivery (CD) , when the test is passed , the build is tested in deployment. If the deployment is successful, the code is pushed to production and delivered.
So continuous integration / deployment is continuous process of commit, build , test , and deploy.
Now let’s download Jenkins through command prompt…
Pre-requisite : Install — Java 8 or Java 11 and set Environment Path
Step 1 : Go to https://www.jenkins.io/download/
