Every morning, after logging into your machine, you do a variety of routine stuffs. The list can include stuffs like opening/checking your email clients, rss readers, launching visual studio, running some business apps, typing some replies, getting latest version from Source Control, compiling, connecting to a different domain etc. To a big extend, we can automate using scripting solutions like AutoIt, nightly jobs etc.
I would love to hear from you geeks out there for the list of stuffs you found doing repeatedly and how you solved it by automating it. Any cool tips?
Faster Processing Needless to say, automation helps employees complete their tasks at a faster pace and improve processing time. This allows them to focus on the creative parts of their job and grow within their discipline. They also get a chance to develop their skills and be satisfied with their job.
I use Linux. I have a bunch of scripts that do anything I want. Typically I write a script whenever a "block" of work can be reused in the future. For example, simple refactorings, deployments, etc...
Over time I started to combine these blocks, hence getting ever more efficient.
Regarding the "load stuff at startup", under Linux that comes out of the box (you can "save your current session" when you log out or turn off the computer).
On windows, my suggestion is to use programs that can be automated via command line.
