This instructor-led, live training in Christchurch (online or on-site) covers the fundamental concepts and practical usage of Jenkins, and is designed for software developers and DevOps engineers who wish to set up Jenkins, create and configure jobs, and automate key aspects of the software development lifecycle.

By the end of this training, participants will be able to:

• Understand the principles of continuous integration and continuous delivery (CI/CD).
• Install and configure Jenkins for software automation.
• Create and manage Jenkins jobs for building and testing applications.
• Set up and customise automated pipelines for software deployment.

This course provides training on managing testing projects using the Selenium test suite and implementing continuous testing with Jenkins.

Intended Audience:

• Software test engineers
• Software developers involved in agile development
• Release managers
• QA engineers

By the end of the Selenium training, participants will be able to:

• Apply the Selenium test suite effectively in real-world projects
• Use Selenium for cross-browser testing
• Distribute test execution using Selenium Grid
• Run regression tests with Selenium in Jenkins
• Generate test reports and periodic reports using Jenkins

Continuous Integration (CI) is a development practice in which developers merge changes to their code as frequently as possible to detect and resolve errors quickly.

In this instructor-led, live training, participants will learn the fundamentals of Continuous Integration for JavaScript while stepping through the process of setting up a CI pipeline for a JavaScript project.

By the end of this training, participants will be able to:

• Understand the core principles of Continuous Integration
• Build their own Continuous Integration system for their JavaScript projects

Audience

• Developers
• IT Professionals
• DevOps Engineers
• Business Managers

Course Format

• A blend of lecture, discussion, exercises, and extensive hands-on practice

This course emphasises practical implementation and tooling. It assumes a solid grasp of theoretical principles (see the DEVOPS course), as it focuses on the latest tools and methods for implementing DevOps principles.

This instructor-led, live training in Christchurch (available online or on-site) is designed for DevOps engineers who wish to optimise and streamline their CI/CD workflows using Docker and Jenkins.

By the end of this training, participants will be able to:

• Automate code delivery and pipeline deployment using Jenkins.
• Build applications with Docker and Dockerfiles.
• Configure authentication options to enhance security.

This instructor-led, live training in Christchurch covers the concepts, tools, and techniques required to implement continuous integration for software projects within an Agile environment. Participants will complete a series of hands-on exercises throughout the course to apply their learning in real-world scenarios. Active interaction between the instructor and participants is encouraged. Real-life case studies are examined, and specific issues and questions are addressed and resolved during class.

This instructor-led, live training in Christchurch (delivered either online or on-site) is designed for engineers who wish to leverage Jenkins 2 to build pipelines that automate the process of moving an application from development to production.

By the end of this training, participants will be able to:

• Install and configure Jenkins 2.
• Adopt a script-based approach to automate every stage of the software deployment process.
• Automatically generate application builds when code is committed to a version control system.
• Automatically initiate the compiling, testing, and packaging of a software application.
• Respond swiftly to notifications and reports when issues arise.
• Install additional plugins to extend Jenkins' capabilities.

When developers complete a piece of code, they often manually integrate it into an application, copy the application to a folder, run the installer, and then launch the application to verify that it behaves as expected. This manual method does not scale well, is tedious, highly prone to errors, and lacks any mechanism for tracking changes throughout the process.

A more effective approach is to automate these activities using Continuous Integration. Continuous Integration refers to 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 approach to an agile, Continuous Integration (CI) model using Jenkins. Throughout the course, participants will complete a series of hands-on, live-lab exercises, applying their new knowledge to real-world software development and deployment challenges at every stage. Interaction between the instructor and participants is actively encouraged. Real-world scenarios will be discussed, and specific issues and questions will be addressed and resolved during the training. The content is particularly focused 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 code 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

Audience

• .Net developers
• Build engineers
• QA engineers
• Project managers
• Release managers
• DevOps engineers

Course Format

• A blend of lectures, discussions, exercises, and extensive hands-on practice
