If you’re stuck trying to reap the benefits of automation, and have yet to experience the transformative impact on how you develop and release software, this article has the strategy for you to get started.

Instead of taking it one step at a time, the time has come to prioritize what it takes to release. The multitude of practices, frameworks and tools to automate everything under the sun are well documented and readily available. We should use them to build the foundation of a process we can evolve to provide confidence, rapid feedback and support. With this new found certainty, we’ll only be limited by our imagination.
