This repository is for the Build a Java app with Maven tutorial in the Jenkins User Documentation.

The repository contains a simple Java application which outputs the string "Hello world!" and is accompanied by a couple of unit tests to check that the main application works as expected. The results of these tests are saved to a JUnit XML report.

The jenkins directory contains an example of the Jenkinsfile (i.e. Pipeline) you'll be creating yourself during the tutorial and the jenkins/scripts subdirectory contains a shell script with commands that are executed when Jenkins processes the "Deliver" stage of your Pipeline.

There are 2 plugins to send email notification. Email Notification and Extended Email. We will prefer to use Email extended as it provides more features and control on Email notification.

Follow below steps to configure and send email notification

For integrating google email with jenkins, we need to generate a App password. The normal password for gmail will not work with integration. To generate google app password, we need to enable 2 MFA. Please follow below steps to generate a app password.

- Navigate to Google account --> Profile Pic --> Manage Account
- Select Security and Enable 2 factor authentication if you have not done it
	○ You can follow instruction and choose different option instead of phone number
	○ It will give you option to prompt on your device after login
	○ If you device doesn't appear on page, then Add your google account in your mobile phone
