Thanks Jeanne and Jean-Marcel.

Yes, definitely sounds like a good to know. My current project is a monolithic legacy system.. so if any place would need a custom plugin, would be this! But I think the most that's been implemented is building from SVN.(not even junits)

Question around CircleCI/other, I probably sound naive.. which would be correct. However, workplace just already has Jenkins locked in, so knowing trivial differences like, i.e. using a YAML description file instead of XY probably aren't important to us.

Hi Jean-Marcel,

Good luck with the book. It's topical for me.

I've been trying to do some learning about CI (specifically with Jenkins). One thing I saw in your book is you have a chapter on writing a Plugin for jenkins.
Is this a really typical thing to do in CI, having to write a custom plugin? I thought CI and jenkins was more of a plug-in play job. Connect SVN, configure the jUnit plugin, configure the code coverage plugin, etc etc.

And I'm mostly interested in Jenkins, am I going to get anything out of the CircleCI/other CI tool chapters?
