Jenkins Job Builder takes simple descriptions of Jenkins jobs in YAML or JSON format and uses them to configure Jenkins. You can keep your job descriptions in human readable text format in a version control system to make changes and auditing easier. It also has a flexible template system, so creating many similarly configured jobs is easy.

We use Jenkins to run our builds in a continuously. This is great, but you still have to do a fair bit of configuration each time you set up a new job. If you have a fairly static set of builds this isn’t a problem. We found ourselves in a situation where we had to create a lot of very similar builds quite regularly. Creating a new job by hand and manually changing the 10 or so tiny little things in each build is a pain and error prone. So…automate that too!
