Jenkins as a Code Up & Running

Installing & Configuring Jenkins is a tedious process, especially when dealing with plugins and dozens of parameters to set manually within the Web UI.

This session shows how to accomplish the goal of describing your Jenkins instances based on the Jenkins plugin Configuration As A Code, which covers all related aspects ( nodes, credentials, pipelines.... ), those will eventually help you to reproduce and/or restore a full environment within minutes.
