#pipeline

Create a Jenkins declarative pipeline for Java application. Stages: 1. Checkout code from Git. 2. Build with Maven. 3. Run unit tests and code coverage (JaCoCo). 4. Static code analysis (SonarQube). 5. Build Docker image. 6. Push to container registry. 7. Deploy to Kubernetes. 8. Run smoke tests. Use parallel stages for efficiency. Implement pipeline as code (Jenkinsfile). Include credential management, artifact archiving, and email notifications on failure.

Optimize sales pipeline in CRM (Salesforce, HubSpot). Best practices: 1. Define clear stage criteria (qualification, demo, proposal, negotiation, closed). 2. Set expected close dates and deal values. 3. Track activities (calls, emails, meetings). 4. Automate follow-up reminders. 5. Forecast revenue by stage probability. 6. Identify bottlenecks and drop-off points. 7. Regular pipeline reviews (weekly). Maintain data hygiene. Archive stale deals. Focus on high-value, high-probability opportunities. Target 3x pipeline coverage.
