## **Prerequisites**

1. **Avo Assure Agent**
   * The Avo Assure Agent must be installed.
   * The user must be registered with the Avo Assure Agent to trigger the execution.
   * The Avo Assure Agent must be running.
2. **Execution List**: At least one execution list should be created in Avo Assure to define which test cases Jenkins will trigger and run.
3. **Jenkins Credentials**: A valid Jenkins username and password ready for authentication.
4. **Jenkins Plugins**: Ensure the Jenkins Plugins must be installed to enable pipeline execution.

## Steps to Install Jenkins Plugins

**Note:** 

* Avo Assure integrates with Jenkins using cURL, PowerShell-RestMethod, JavaScript, Python, and Shell-wget programming languages. Ensure the required plugins for these languages are installed.
* The example below demonstrates plugin installation using PowerShell language. Plugins for other supported languages can be installed similarly.
