While planning my trip to San Francisco for JavaOne (catch me there for a beer), I saw that there is a Jenkins User Conference coming up October 2nd, 2011, just prior to JavaOne. As I was signing up for the event, I started thinking that we’ve been using Hudson/Jenkins for years now. Through the years, certain Jenkins features/plugins have really paid off and been life savers for getting higher-quality software out quicker. So I thought, why not share this with you? Here is a list of my own and the team’s top 10 must-have Jenkins features/plugins.
- Easy Installation
- Easy Upgrades
- Scriptability
- View Filters
- Maven
- Amazon EC2
- HTML Publisher
- Throttle Builds
- Join
- Green Balls
