0 -> Hi let us understand how
7.8 -> checkstyle can be integrated as a part of Jenkins. We need to have a quick understanding on Jenkins. Jenkins is a open
15.6 -> source automation tool which can be used in every phase of any project that is build, integration as well as during deployment
25.433 -> let us have a quick overview
27.8 -> every project we will be having n number of source code and it will be
32.1 -> developed by n number of developers and we will be having a centralized
36.4 -> source control system like svn or Git where developers will be checking in their code. Already we have seen the plugins to integrate
45 -> with eclipse development tool or other development tools where developers can make sure the code
50.733 -> is being maintained as per the standard defined within the organisation
56.466 -> now I can have the additional check or control during the build phase as well
60.933 -> and Jenkins plays an important role in the continuous integration
65.4 -> where i can configure the Jenkins to read the source code from source control system and it can be triggered by multiple ways either on
74.333 -> every checking or periodically we can trigger this activity and Jenkins going to execute
80.3 -> the build tools like Ant, Gradle, Maven and it is going to do the build activity
86.3 -> so it's going to deliver the output in terms of the jar file
90.4 -> as well as we can make this tool deliver the checkstyle report as well
94.6 -> as we do in the normal build how we will be integrating the checkstyle
98.833 -> i will be integrating the checkstyle by providing the checkstyle xml and as a part of the build script whether it is Ant, Gradle or Maven i will
107.3 -> i will be providing the required configurations in terms of where the configuration
111.533 -> file and where the output should get generated what are all the modules to be used
115.766 -> all those integrations I will be doing it and when ever Jenkins getting triggered to
121.433 -> to do build activity it will generate the report as well and Jenkins provides a plugin for checkstyle and this is very recently
130.533 -> it is duplicated so it is recommended to use another plugin where its going to have
136.633 -> more advanced features and it supports checkstyle and other static analysis tool as well
142.733 -> warning next generation so this particular plugin will read the report whatever the
148.4 -> report being generated and it's going to give a beautiful visualized
154.066 -> UI. So this is what we are going to do as a part of the next few lecture where i am going to show you how the Jenkins can be installed
162 -> how it can be configured as well as we are going to execute a sample project using the Jenkins either using Ant or
169.933 -> Gradle script and visualize the report using the next generation plugin
