Jenkins is built with Java, but you can use it without Java knowledges. This is ready for use system with UI. For example, that you can do:
- run automated tests (unit, functional, performance, etc.)
- speed up the releases of your application
- send notification to email or some messenger
- automate some jobs and other
Jenkins has a lot of plugins that help to add integrations with different systems (git, jira, docker, slack, etc.) or run some commands/requests via ssh, http, curl.
Jenkins allows to create single jobs or pipelines with many steps. In last case the Groovy language can be needed.
Wiki: "Jenkins is a free and open source automation server. Jenkins helps to automate the non-human part of the software development process, with continuous integration and facilitating technical aspects of continuous delivery."
