Once you're running jobs, you'll want to be able to monitor them in real time. In this lesson, get introduced to the build console and how to view output while the job is running.
- [Instructor] Now let's take a look at the console log.…Click the most recent blue dot to open up…the console output page for that build.…On this page you'll see the details relating to…who ran the build, where it was run,…and any output the build produced.…In this case you see the count from one to 30…that was printed by your shell step.…If you want to see the output…without any HTML markup or graphics,…click the view as plain text link…on the left under the console output.…The back arrow gets you back to the Jenkins interface.…Seeing the build status and checking the output is great,…but what if you want to see the output in real time…as the build is running?…You can do that easily.…
Go back to the project page and click…build now one more time.…Once the build gets started click on the blue dot…to open the console output page.…You'll see that Jenkins is updating the console output…as the job runs.…The page even scrolls along automatically…so you can follow the most recent output…without having to scroll the window manually.…

Next, configure your first job step by step, leading up to the requisite "Hello, World" output, and learn to make your jobs more useful and portable with parameters. Then explore job scheduling, and Jenkins's convenient aliases for running jobs at regular intervals. The course wraps up with tips for organizing jobs in folders and views and a brief look into pipelines as code-which enable you to execute a series of jobs in stages.
By the end of the training, you should be able to install Jenkins locally or on a virtual machine, create a Jenkins jobs that can be triggered manually or on a schedule, and install and configure plugins to extend the Jenkins framework.
