You thought your old Android phone was only good for propping up a wobbly table or acting as a glorified alarm clock?
Think again.
That little slab of silicon collecting dust in your drawer can become… a fully functional Jenkins agent.
Yes, seriously — your ex-smartphone can run continuous integration while your laptop takes a well-deserved break.
In this session, we’ll talk tech recycling — not the bicycle-wheel-powered windmill kind, but full-on mobile DevOps.
We’ll show you how these old phones, with specs rivaling a bulked-up Raspberry Pi, can become your new go-to CI/CD agents.
Cut down on e-waste? Check.
Zero hardware budget? Check.
Eco-hacker street cred? Double check.
You’ll get a step-by-step guide: what tools to install, how to configure everything, so Jenkins doesn’t fall asleep on the job, and — perhaps most importantly — how not to fry the battery (or your patience).
Bonus: tips, hacks, and war stories on how to turn an old Xiaomi Note 7 into the Terminator of automated testing.
Time to wake up those sleeping smartphones: sustainable DevOps starts now.
