This API makes Jenkins even easier to use by providing an easy to use conventional Python interface. . Jenkins (and its predecessor Hudson) are useful projects for automating common development tasks (e.g., unit-testing, production batches) - but they are somewhat Java-centric. Thankfully the designers have provided an excellent and complete REST interface. This library wraps up that interface as more conventional Python objects in order to make most Jenkins-oriented tasks simpler.
