Automation Frameworks
Most engineers start their automation journey by writing small ad hoc scripts. Over time, as these scripts grow in size and number, we need to think about the operating model for the solutions we create and how strong the foundations we are building upon are. Ultimately, we have to coordinate automation practices across different teams to generate business outcomes at scale.
To reduce the time and effort spent automating their use cases, some organizations try to standardize their tools and reuse generic components in their solutions, which often leads them to automation frameworks.
Automation frameworks allow different teams to come together under the same umbrella, break silos that may lead to inefficiencies, embrace common practices and code reusability, and enforce policies across domains to make the developed solutions more secure.
When choosing what best fits your environment and use cases, make sure you evaluate different automation frameworks...
