Proposals will be filtered and shortlisted by an Editorial Panel. We urge you to add links to videos / slide decks when submitting proposals. This will help us understand your past speaking experience. Blurbs or blog posts covering the relevance of a particular problem statement and how it is tackled will help the Editorial Panel better judge your proposals.

JJB to Manage Jenkins Job Effectively
Submitted Mar 27, 2015
Section:
Full talk
Technical level:
Beginner
Learn about Jenkins Job Builder(JJB) which takes simple descriptions of Jenkins jobs in YAML format, and uses them to configure Jenkins. You can keep your job descriptions in human readable text format in a version control system to make changes and auditing easier. It also has a flexible template system, so creating many similarly configured jobs is easy.
Outline
If you are managing Jenkins for your organization and configuring jobs using it’s web interface then it will become nightmare to keep them up to date. This is especially true when a component changes how it is built since the change must be made in many different jobs on Jenkins.
In this talk we will see how effective JJB is when it’s come to managing Jenkins job. We will explore how to write Job configuration for a sample project and deploy it on Jenkins. We will also explore about different modules which JJB provide and how to use them. We will also tryout reusing yaml configuration for different project to create job.
Requirements
Experience with Jenkins is plus
