We’ve all been there: repetitive, boring tasks we like to postpone. First of that kind that pops up in your mind: filling out timesheets!
While working at a Telco project, we had to fill out timesheets in the most archaic, nerve-wrecking system. Soon I was fed up and decided to automate this process with calling a REST Api, Selenium and some python programming. Soon I noticed I could automate other repetitive tasks.
In this talk I’ll present my journey of how I made my life somewhat easier. I’ll present some real-life examples including filling timesheets, posting deployment updates, updating your environment, … and give some tips and advice how you can find those boring tasks you might be able to automate!
