Detailed Description

Jenkins provides continuous integration services for software development. It is a server-based system. Builds can be started by various means, including being triggered by commit in a version control system, scheduling via a cron-like mechanism, building when other builds have completed, and by requesting a specific build URL.

Benefit to Fedora

Users will be given chance to meet Jenkins via official Fedora repositories.
