• SFT bases their builds procedures in the Jenkins toolkit scheduler. The SFT Jenkins instance is running on node phsft-jenkins.cern.ch. The latest version installed is 1.626. This how-to describes how to set up Jenkins for internal usage at CERN, together with an optional web-hook for GitHub that bypasses the Shibboleth SSO. Procedures and scripts included in Jenkins are available here.
