Continuous Integration

Continuous effort - not strength or intelligence - is the key to unlocking our potential
- Winston Churchill

In this chapter, we will cover how to install the continuous integration server Jenkins and perform various tasks related to compilation, unit test execution, code analysis, and creating a package file. We will also cover continuous integration using Microsoft stack. The goal here is to gain as much information as you can about the continuous integration as it is a base for the rest of the automation. Here is the gist of topics that we will cover:

Installing Jenkins 2
Configuring Maven-based JEE web application
Integrating Jenkins and SonarQube
Executing command-line operations from Jenkins
Continuous integration using VSTS

Let's start with making ourselves aware about Jenkins...

Key benefits

• Improve your organization's performance to ensure smooth production of software and services.

• Learn how Continuous Integration and Continuous Delivery practices can be utilized to cultivate the DevOps culture.

• A fast-paced guide filled with illustrations and best practices to help you consistently ship quality software.

Description

DevOps Bootcamp delivers practical learning modules in manageable chunks. Each chunk is delivered in a day, and each day is a productive one. Each day builds your competency in DevOps. You will be able to take the task you learn every day and apply it to cultivate the DevOps culture. Each chapter presents core concepts and key takeaways about a topic in DevOps and provides a series of hands-on exercises. You will not only learn the importance of basic concepts or practices of DevOps but also how to use different tools to automate application lifecycle management. We will start off by building the foundation of the DevOps concepts. On day two, we will perform Continuous Integration using Jenkins and VSTS both by configuring Maven-based JEE Web Application?. We will also integrate Jenkins and Sonar qube for Static Code Analysis. Further, on day three, we will focus on Docker containers where we will install and configure Docker and also create a Tomcat Container to deploy our Java based web application. On day four, we will create and configure the environment for application deployment in AWS and Microsoft Azure Cloud for which we will use Infrastructure as a Service and Open Source Configuration Management tool Chef. For day five, our focus would be on Continuous Delivery. We will automate application deployment in Docker container using Jenkins Plugin, AWS EC2 using Script, AWS Elastic Beanstalk using Jenkins Plugin, Microsoft Azure VM using script, and Microsoft Azure App Services Using Jenkins. We will also configure Continuous Delivery using VSTS. We will then learn the concept of Automated Testing on day six using Apache JMeter and URL-based tests in VSTS. Further, on day seven, we will explore various ways to automate application lifecycle management using orchestration. We will see how Pipeline can be created in Jenkins and VSTS, so the moment Continuous? Integration is completed successfully, Continuous Delivery will start and application will be deployed. On the final day, our focus would be on Security access to Jenkins and Monitoring of CI resources, and cloud-based resources in AWS and Microsoft Azure Platform as a Service.
