What do you think of Jenkins? It's not the 'latest' CI/CD tool out there but in the industry it's still seen as a tried, tested and true solution. Many companies are still dependent on their Jenkins infrastructure, and will be for many more years to come.

[@Babbili]

its Docker image is full of security vulnerabilities, wt ... i already tried even the alpine tag, still have around 20 vulnerabilities and some of them critical

@@Babbili Sounds like Jenkins to me! 😂
