Above comment is to describe the existing process, we need to find common hooks, and tasks by jenkins pipeline which help generalize it. Thanks!

@NakulManchanda - how much of this is working with getting a git hook to kick off a build that puts the code into artifactory ? Leaving aside the testing for now if the automatic building is done then that means we can start to think about the mechanism for distributing these on zowe.org and building out the specification for a marketplace

Hi @Joe-Winchester @jackjia-ibm

Sorry, I missed the message

I think what jack is looking for generalized packaging for all extenders plugin from jenkins integration point of view, like running tests, build etc .Its equivalent to Zowe Lifecycling we have during zowe install - configure, start and validate. We need some simillar reusable sematics for Jenkins, artifactory publishing for extenders.

Its not integrated with git hook right now.
Would love to get it integrated, any opinion @jackjia-ibm ?

Issue depends on
zowe/zowe-install-packaging#1249
to reduce effort and provide a good example for testing as well
