Jenkins is an extensible open-source automation server that runs software builds, tests, and delivery as pipelines.
Jenkins began in 2004 at Sun Microsystems as Kohsuke Kawaguchi's Hudson project to automate repeatable builds and tests. After a community fork in 2011, it became Jenkins; the Jenkins community continues it as an open-source project.
Jenkins is a workbench with a conveyor belt: a change starts a pipeline, stations build and test it, and the result is a package or deployment.
Defines automated steps from a change to delivery.
Produces a testable software artifact from source code.
Extends Jenkins with integrations and additional tasks.
Jenkins automates repeatable CI/CD flows across many tools; maintaining plugins, infrastructure, and pipeline configuration remains operational work.
