First and foremost my beautiful wife, Karishma, without whose love and support this book would not have been possible.

I would like to thank Nikhil Karkal for bringing me this wonderful opportunity to write a book on Jenkins and for helping me in the preliminary stages of the book.

A great thanks to Thomas Dao, who provided me with valuable feedback throughout the writing process.

Most importantly, a special thanks to the following people who worked hard to make this book the best possible experience for the readers: Siddhi Rane, Preeti Singh, Sumeet Sawant, and the whole Packt Publishing technical team working in the backend.

And finally, a great thanks to the Jenkins community for creating such a wonderful software.
