Jenkins Glossary Definition

Jenkins is an open-source automation server used to build, test, and deploy software through continuous integration and delivery pipelines.

Documentation teams may encounter Jenkins in docs-as-code workflows when documentation builds, link checks, tests, or publishing jobs run as part of a pipeline. It is a software and DevOps tool rather than a documentation tool by itself.
