Jenkins

Definition

Jenkins (jenkins.io) is the long-running open-source automation server, widely used for CI/CD pipelines. Configuration lives in Jenkinsfiles (Groovy-based declarative or scripted pipelines); jobs can be triggered by SCM webhooks, cron, manual invocation, or upstream job completion.

Jenkins is an open-source competitor / predecessor to GitHub Actions, CircleCI, GitLab CI, Buildkite, and Bitbucket Pipelines. It remains common at large enterprises with existing on-prem CI investments.
