CI/CD & Test Automation

Note

TL;DR - Hub for Jenkins CI/CD infrastructure at Amarula Solutions — covering pipeline design for embedded projects (Yocto, Android, firmware), Gerrit-triggered verification, static analysis (CodeChecker), memory checking (Valgrind), hardware-in-the-loop testing (Labgrid), and shared Groovy libraries for pipeline standardization.

Jenkins Pipeline Documentation

Our CI/CD documentation covers the full pipeline lifecycle:

• Jenkins overview — architecture, folder organization, pipeline creation, job triggering, credentials. See ci/jenkins.

• Gerrit trigger — automated verification on patchset creation, Verified label management. See ci/gerrit_trigger.

• Gerrit trigger for repo projects — multi-repository dependency handling (AOSP-style). See ci/gerrit_repo_trigger.

Embedded Build Pipelines

Production pipeline patterns for specific build systems:

• Yocto builds with kas-container and resource throttling — articles/jenkins/jenkins-yocto-kas-pipeline

• Yocto with Mend SCA security scanning — articles/jenkins/jenkins-mend-pipeline

• OS build + Labgrid hardware testing — articles/jenkins/how-validate-os-build-labgrid-testing

• Android CI with S3 build caching (25% faster) — articles/jenkins/jenkins-mobile-build-time

• DSL pipeline for Espressif firmware verification — articles/jenkins/jenkins-dsl-gerrit-trigger

Code Quality & Security Scanning

• CodeChecker static analysis with Jenkins Warnings NG — articles/jenkins/warning-ng-jenkins-codechecker

• Valgrind memory leak detection with quality gates — articles/jenkins/warning-ng-jenkins-valgrind

• CodeNarc for Groovy shared libraries — articles/jenkins/jenkins-groovy-codenarc

• SonarQube integration — ci/sonarqube

• Docker build dependency caching — ci/docker

Shared Libraries

Amarula Solutions’ reusable Groovy pipeline components:

• ci_scripts — Build, Verification, AndroidBuild, Ui, Archiva, Sftp classes.

• repo_jenkins_lib — Git, Gerrit, GerritChange, Repo for multi-repo projects.

• codechecker_jenkins_lib — CodeChecker static analysis wrapper.

• changelog_lib — Automated changelog generation.

See ci/sharedlibs/index for complete documentation.

Android CI/CD

• Android app pipeline — ci/android/android_app_pipeline

• APK signing and AAB signing — ci/android/android_app_signing

• Emulator testing in Docker — ci/android/android_emulator_in_jenkins

• Google Play upload automation — ci/android/upload_android_app

• AOSP build project — ci/aosp
