Overview

Jenkins is an open-source Java automation server for repeatable software-development work. It joins builds, tests, static analysis, and deployment into pipelines and connects external tools through more than 2,000 plugins.

Based on official documentation; not hands-on tested · Content checked:

Connect development stages through pipelines and plugins

It automates project builds, tests, static code analysis, deployment, and other recurring work. Official distributions include WAR files, Docker images, and packages or installers for Linux and Windows, with a frequently updated Weekly line and an LTS line receiving backported fixes.

For operating a continuous workflow across existing tools

It fits teams connecting source control, builds, tests, quality checks, artifacts, and deployment targets around organization-specific requirements. A broad plugin catalog moves repeatable work into pipelines.

Maintain the chosen release line and its plugin estate

Weekly brings changes sooner, while LTS periodically receives fixes backported to an older line. Select an update track and manage compatibility and upgrade procedures for Jenkins core, pipeline plugins, external tools, credentials, and the chosen distribution method together.
