Practice - 5 Tasks

1fill in blank

easy

Complete the code to trigger a downstream job named 'BuildApp'.

Jenkins

build job: '[1]'

Drag options to blanks, or click blank then click option'

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Using the wrong job name that does not exist.

Forgetting to put the job name in quotes.

The build job: 'BuildApp' command triggers the downstream job named 'BuildApp'.

2fill in blank

medium

Complete the code to trigger a job and wait for its completion.

Jenkins

build job: 'TestApp', wait: [1]

Drag options to blanks, or click blank then click option'

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Using a string instead of a boolean.

Setting wait to false when you want to wait.

Setting wait: true makes the pipeline wait for the triggered job to finish before continuing.

3fill in blank

hard

Fix the error in the trigger syntax to correctly trigger the downstream job.

Jenkins

[1] job: 'BuildApp'

Drag options to blanks, or click blank then click option'

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Using 'trigger' instead of 'build'.

Using 'start' which is not a Jenkins pipeline step.

The correct Jenkins pipeline syntax to trigger a job is build, not trigger or others.

4fill in blank

hard

Fill both blanks to define a pipeline that triggers 'TestApp' after 'BuildApp' completes.

Jenkins

pipeline {
  stages {
    stage('Build') {
      steps {
        build job: '[1]'
      }
    }
    stage('Test') {
      steps {
        build job: '[2]'
      }
    }
  }
}

Drag options to blanks, or click blank then click option'

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Swapping the job names in the stages.

Using job names that do not exist.

The first stage triggers 'BuildApp', and after it completes, the second stage triggers 'TestApp'.

5fill in blank

hard

Fill all three blanks to create a pipeline that triggers 'BuildApp', waits for it, then triggers 'TestApp' with parameters.

Jenkins

pipeline {
  stages {
    stage('Build') {
      steps {
        build job: '[1]', wait: [2]
      }
    }
    stage('Test') {
      steps {
        build job: '[3]', parameters: [string(name: 'ENV', value: 'prod')]
      }
    }
  }
}

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Not waiting for the build job to finish.

Using wrong job names or missing parameters.

The pipeline triggers 'BuildApp' and waits for it to finish (wait: true), then triggers 'TestApp' with a parameter.
