Jenkins is one of the most popular Continuous Integration (CI) and Continuous Deployment (CD) tools out there. It allows you to automate build processes, test executions, report generation etc. Jenkins server is installed in a separate server and it can be configured to poll for changes in the source code repository.
Installing and configuring Jenkins is very easy. You can either download and install Jenkins in your local machine or on a separate server (https://jenkins.io/download/) or you can use the official docker container https://hub.docker.com/_/jenkins/.
Jenkins usually deployed on port 8080. Assuming you have installed Jenkins in to your local machine, you can visit http://localhost:8080 to load Jenkins.
