2012 Jenkins User Conference Paris: Abstracts
This conference focuses on Jenkins Continuous Integration (CI) as the fundamental best practice for enterprise software development. Our presenters are experienced Jenkins open source developers, executives, business managers, architects and authors who are luminaries within the Jenkins community. They represent the many organizations around the world who are leveraging the use of Jenkins within the application development lifecycle.
The Jenkins in the Cloud workshops guide you through the many benefits of cloud infrastructures and Platform as a Service (PaaS). The sessions will also cover topics such as how to set up and integrate cloud options into your existing development strategy -- all while protecting and leveraging legacy IT investments.

10:30 - 11:40am The number of plugins increases exponentially. This vast ecosystem of plugins enables Jenkins to cover a large number of needs. However, you are likely to create your own plugin to meet your specific needs or integrate your specific tools. I invite you to discover the Jenkins API to create your own plugin. This session will help you understand the prerequisites for the development of a Jenkins plugin.

10:30 - 11:15am
Configuring a build-pipeline on Jenkins to implement continuous delivery requires a complex set of jobs and plugins to chain them together. Quickly the jobs are polluted by the pipeline configuration, and you don't get a centralized view of your workflow. Build-flow has been created to address this issue and let you define the pipeline using a DSL as a dedicated entity, isolated from your jobs.

11:45 - 12:05pm This demo will show automation techniques integrating Maven and Gradle, with Jenkins. We will show a full release management flow, using configurable rules and Artifactory Binary Repository all the way to your YUM repository. Whether you are building software for the cloud or in-house, this demo will show you how to have completely automated production builds that release applications which are fully traceable, managed and ready to be provisioned with no fear!

11:25am - 12:05pm How to setup Jenkins to create your Native Package build factory, up to continuous deployment.

--- LUNCH & LEARN --- 12:10 - 12:20pm How Jenkins is used, administered, and difficulties of maintaining a body with many jobs/nodes.
12:20 - 12:30pm Originally Scriptler was a plugin dedicated to remove the need for copy n' paste Groovy scripts. With the newest version it has evolved and an administrator is now able to give a user access to some more infra tasks by sharing selected scripts. Like with the update center for plugins, we are now able to share Groovy scripts via GitHub and pull them right into Scriptler.
Groovy System Script is my favorite Jenkins functionality. My main script is +5K lines of code, it's my pitfall. I will introduce how and when to use Groovy for the System Script, the Web API and plugin.
Jenkins Enterprise Templates help you build reusable jobs and builders. Templates capture "sameness" of jobs with a huge advantage that a change to configuration is immediately reflected in all jobs. The net effect is simplification of administration of Jenkins. This talk gives a quick round up of the various types of templates and a couple of examples illustrating their usage.

1:00 - 2:00pm In this session you'll learn to setup your own mobile development environment on iOS. You'll be able to use your own app or a Hello World application and you'll prepare your continuous integration and deployment environment to deploy it directly on your phone.
|
1:00 - 1:45pm In this talk, we will demonstrate how you can set up your delivery pipeline with Jenkins even in complex enterprise environments, including:

1:55 - 2:40pm In the Eclipse world there is a before and an after Tycho. The Maven, Jenkins and Sonar combination, well known from Java developers, is now available for Eclipse (RCP/OSGI) products. Automate your build, continuously deploy, control your code quality and fight your technical debt with the help of these tools. Come to this talk to see what are the remaining steps to put your project on the rails of continuous improvement; making it welcoming and safe.

3:15 - 4:55pm This workshop covers topics like Jenkins installation, configuration and corresponding best practices. It will walk you through freestyle build jobs and plugin installation, ending with advanced usages like continuous deployment. The workshop is a good mix of slides and hands-on lab exercises to getting started quickly with Jenkins. This workshop is an abridged version of CloudBees Jenkins Training and will be run on CloudBees DEV@cloud (which is Jenkins in the cloud). Attendees will have to bring their own laptop and can expect to get a good feel for Jenkins both on-cloud and on-premise.
|
3:15 - 4:00pm The story about the ClearCase UCM plugin, how it implements the Jenkins community's third-most wanted feature: Pre-tested commits using a branchy approach resulting in a project integration branch that literally never breaks and how Continuous Delivery is supported by the plugin's ability to pull from branch to branch. An example for other SCM plugins to follow.

4:10 - 4:55pm How Nuxeo relies on Jenkins for its continuous integration, providing quality assurance and release tools. Feedback on the Jenkins development model. See http://qa.nuxeo.org/jenkins/

5:00 - 6:35pm
Attendees of this tutorial will learn how to implement continuous integration to automate processes for building and deploying regular releases of their PHP-based software. They will also learn how to use Jenkins to monitor and improve their applications through continuous inspection and static code analysis.

5:00 - 5:45pm
Jenkins is at the core of our Unity 3D cross-platform build pipeline (Windows, Mac, iOS, Android). This presentation will show you many aspects of the maintenance and evolution of a Jenkins server running on Mac OS X, including detailing the implementation of our Unity 3D plugin, describing our build pipeline setup (where we reuse various plugins: xcode, testflight...) and how we automate the maintenance of the iOS provisioning profiles using shell & Ruby scripts.
