Adding Durability to your Projects with Automated Testing and Deployments

Most of us believe that automating testing and deployments are a good idea, but things sometimes fall apart when it comes time to actually get down to implement. This session will offer a high-level overview of how you can make your team and processes more efficient and durable using automation of testing and deployments. We will cover a variety of options and how to take the first steps to integrating them into your existing workflows.

Some of the topics we will cover:

* How to sell testing/automation to technical and non-technical stakeholders.
* The right type of testing depends on the type of project.
* Kickstarting automated testing on your projects.
* How automated deployments will save you time (and sometimes your sanity) in addition to making your processes more durable.
* How automation will make your developers better at their jobs.
