11.2.4 Getting Started with Jenkins Server

Jenkins is an open source automation server which enables developers to automate build, test, and deploy their software. For more information go to Jenkins official site.

The CI/CD Wizard offers a solution to run an automatically configured Jenkins server instance in a Docker container. The Jenkins server can be configured to build an existing MPLAB X IDE project from a local folder or from git. The server can be a starting point for further configuration and customization, or as a local test bed for the build pipelines generated by the wizard.
