It's mostly North American usage, but thanks to Hollywood and the TV industry it's snuck in over here too, pardner.

I have set up a build VM and a Test VM for my project. I'm using Guthub for source repo. I want to install Jenkins on the build server and set up automatic builds when code is checked into master.
Problem is, I've never done this before. Anyone know of any tutorials or other help that can get me started?
Thanks
If it's not broken, fix it until it is.
Everything makes sense in someone's mind.
Ya can't fix stupid.

Trigger Jenkins builds by pushing to Github | Four Kitchens[^]
From a Google search of “github jenkins build on push”.
What do you get when you cross a joke with a rhetorical question?
The metaphorical solid rear-end expulsions have impacted the metaphorical motorized bladed rotating air movement mechanism.
Do questions with multiple question marks annoy you???

Jenkins is pretty easy
1) Java
2) Jenkins - Jenkins installation and setup - Installing Jenkins - note the unlock instructions towards the bottom of the page
3) Any Jenkins plugins you need (Can't remember if Git is pre-installed as a Repo integration) - there are two ways you can integrate any repo, poll a branch for changes (loose integration) or a tighter integration where you use the hooks from your repo to 'message' Jenkins .. I suggest go for the loose one first. If you dont have a lots of Devs committing at once, there shouldnt be any issues
4) Write a Classic or Pipeline job ...
5) If you want to do testing on another machine (and it seems you do), set that up as a 'Slave' - their terminology, not mine, we preferred 'Agent' where I used to work with it. If you point a browser on the 'Agent' machine at Jenkins in the Build or Jenkins Server, you can download the 'Agent' kit directly
I can help when you're stuck or need words of wisdom

That depends on the language you're using.
I haven't used it in recent years, but a few years ago you needed a few plugins for C# builds.
For code coverage you needed Cobertura, which isn't supported by VS, so you needed some command line utility to convert the VS output to Cobertura and publish that in Jenkins.
But then came the jenkinsfiles which let you write everything using Groovy and about half of those plugins didn't support this.
All in all, "easy" isn't the word I'd use.

er - ok .. I had C# builds running on a 'headless' server, Ruby, Kotlin builds, as well as C++

What type of project is it ?

Why Jenkins? It is not native to VS or Microsoft at all, and "can" be a big PITA to setup and configure and "get right".
We use Microsoft DevOps (used to be TFS). Is this something you would consider? Do you have a specific use case that needs Jenkins?

I've setup a test TeamCity build server in a couple of hours. (I also look at Azure DevOps and it is similar)
It should be more or less identical to Jenkins.
Tell where your source code is (git), setup a few build steps (what/how to compile, what/how to test... ) and triggers (on commit/push, on pull-request, scheduled...) and let it works its magic.
I'd rather be phishing!

we used TeamCity at another shop I worked at, with great success.
But honestly, DevOps now is great and integrates with VS 2019 and Git completely. no major issues to speak of.

Hey there. I couldn't recover my old username wizardzz, so I created this one.
What's new?

hiya.
i'm currently burning away a bit of my life playing a post-apoc video game (Mad Max) because it already feels like the world is going to hell, so at least I will be entertained while it's coming undone.
