Setting up Jenkins in local Machine

Jenkins is a famous continuous integration tool which is used in the industry.

Step 1:  Lets create a simple maven project.

a.       Set maven and java paths in environment variables

JAVA_HOME=C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_111

M2_HOME=D:\Personnel\Softwares\apache-maven-3.3.9

path=%M2_HOME%\bin;%JAVA_HOME%\bin;

Step 2: Create a maven project.

                Install eclipse and create a maven project

              

Pom.xml

<project xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"

       xsi:schemaLocation="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0 http://maven.apache.org/xsd/maven-4.0.0.xsd">

       <modelVersion>4.0.0</modelVersion>

       <groupId>com.google.com</groupId>

       <artifactId>google-test</artifactId>

       <version>0.0.1-SNAPSHOT</version>

       <packaging>jar</packaging>

       <name>google-test</name>

       <url>http://maven.apache.org</url>

       <properties>

              <project.build.sourceEncoding>UTF-8</project.build.sourceEncoding>
<jre.level>1.8</jre.level>

<jdk.level>1.8</jdk.level>

       </properties>

       <dependencies>

<configuration>
<suiteXmlFiles>
<!-- TestNG suite XML files -->
<suiteXmlFile>testng.xml</suiteXmlFile>
</suiteXmlFiles>
</configuration>
</plugin>
</plugins>

</build>

</project>

TestNg.xml

<suite name="Test">

       <test name="Test">

              <classes>

                     <class name="com.google.com.google_test.NewTest"></class>
