Hi Mukesh, Firstly I would like to thank you for your so useful videos and teaching way. I have a query related to Jenkins Version 2.67(latest) :-unable to see "Email Notification" option under "Configure System" in 'Manage Jenkins ' option. Please let me know "Email Notification" option. Thanks in advance!!

[@waheedahmed6524]

Thanks Mukesh for the video..but I didnt see linking up the source or testcases ? Is there separate video ? So configuring jenkins for Java JDK, batch file link up is done when creating job?

[@anupbagade783]

Hi Mukesh, Thanks for the video. Can you suggest how to send an email notification via jenkins with emailable report attached and the maven project code gets picked up from GIT.?

[@PankajSharma-pl3nq]

Hello Mukesh, Thanks for the video. Indeed you are a great tutor. I see there were few more options available under the trigger build section like when code is checked into git hub etc. Do you have any plans to talk about them as well?

[@Mukeshotwani]

Yes Pankaj I have planned for them as well. I will upload soon.

[@shiraozeri2677]

Hi Mukesh, Thank you very much. you know how i can add that some of the tests run every 15 minutes, and other every night?

[@nikhathk5677]

Hi Mukesh, Thank you so much for great explanation, but I have a doubt, if I schedule my jenkins job to run early morning 4 am and if my laptop is shutdown or in sleep mode then how it will trigger test cases, please clarify my doubt I want to know how it works in company

[@Mukeshotwani]

Hi Nikhath, yes asked valid question. First of all if system is not in running state (sleep mode, shutdown) then build will not run. In realtime, we deploy jenkins on VM or Cloud (AWS, GCP, Azure) which runs 24/7 so test will run overnight.

[@AnilKumar-wg5hb]

hi mukesh thank you somuch for the video

[@waheedahmed6524]

I have quick question isnt covered here..I have Maven Project not free style and do I still have to do Add Build Step and select Windows Batch Command? or should I select Invoke top level Maven targets? can you share some steps ?

Hi Mukesh, Thanks for the vedio. I had one question: If i need to run my Web Automation test cases through Jenkins + Github integration in night. I know we can configure schedule job in Jenkins which will call test script from GitHub and trigger in night. But for Web automation test to run in night do we need to have Open/available machine at that time.

[@haijunun]

Hi Mukesh, Very descriptive video, easy to understand. I have one doubt here, as you said when we run the job in jenkins it will not show the browser related stuff running but when I run the job it showed me Firefox opening www.facebook.com. Could you please clarify this point once, why it has open the browser as it should open in background only.

[@Mukeshotwani]

+haijunun Hi it is working fine :) if you want to run in back ground then jenkins has to be started as slave.

Hi Mukesh, I have intsllaed Jenkins 2.32.1 on my machine. I have few queries in Jenkins, If you are aware can you please help me here. I am planing to use Jenkins to collect few information. Can you please let me know what all should be done to get this ? I am creating windows images in my environment and normally I check each windows images manually to see whether the imaging is successful or not.I want the success or failure status of windows images to be updated in Jenkins so that when I need, I can login to Jenkins to check the same. Also Once the image creation is completed we use to run a powershell script to validate the image to see all the necessary applications are installed or not and this powershell script used to send an email to our mail box. But I want this step also to be automated from Jenkins using the same powershell script, so that the validation status also get updated on Jenkins behalf of sending emails. Is there any way to accomplish this ?
