Hi Lin Liang,
For RQM integration, there's a great article explaining what's possible with SmartCloud Continuous Delivery and RQM: https://jazz.net/library/article/1151 .
For Jenkins, we have had an article in progress, but it's not complete yet. However, if you take a look at the Build Forge article, you should be able to adapt it to your needs: https://jazz.net/library/article/1187
The basic flow for integrating a third-party Continuous Integration server like Jenkins requires:
1. At the end of any Build Jobs, you publish the application artifacts & automation scripts into the software library. The Build Forge/SCD article has a file in its sample project called publishAsset.xml to help with this.
2. At the beginning of any "deploy/validate" Job, you'll check out content from your SCM into a scope where the running Jenkins Job can see it. Then, invoke the deployment into the cloud. Again, in the Build Forge article, there's a file called deployApplication.xml that can help with this.
3. From here, the SCD/RQM article can help you trigger automated tests against the running system in the cloud.
When we publish the Jenkins article, I'll make a note from this forum entry.
