How To Setup Up Jenkins Webhooks For Automated Builds?
Jenkins is a broadly utilized open-source automation server that assists with automating the building, testing, and deployment of software applications. One of the main elements of Jenkins is its ability to coordinate with different tools and services. In this article, we will zero in on setting up the Jenkins GitHub webhook integration.
Let’s first understand what a webhook is before we get into the specifics. A webhook is a way for an application to send continuous data to another application. A webhook is a way that GitHub notifies Jenkins of changes to a repository in the context of Jenkins and GitHub. In response to the webhook notification, Jenkins can then build and test the code automatically. When a new commit is pushed to a GitHub repository, Jenkins uses the webhook to start a build.
