Continuous Integration: Dependency Walker Jenkins Pipeline

The Dependency Walker pipeline allows to navigate the dependencies among projects in Jenkins.

Given the name of a Jenkins project (P):

• navigate the maven modules built by P
• recursively analyze the module's dependencies and their Jenkins projects
• generate the list of projects that have modules depending on each maven module in P
• print a formatted report of the information extracted from the analysis.
