This is an old revision of our projects page and was moved off in October of 2013. It is kept only for reference.

Automation and Tools Projects

Our projects can be broken up as follows:

  • Performance - Projects surrounding measurement of performance
  • Web Tools - Projects to build web tools and web UIs for automation frameworks
  • Automation - Projects to automate some process or create automation frameworks
  • Tool Infrastructure - Tool "building blocks" from which we can make other tools

Please fill out this table with your best estimates for the projects you are involved in. An explanation of the fields:

  • Area - one of the four project areas
  • Project Name - the project name, and should be a wiki link to a project details page at Auto-tools/Projects/<projectname> (See Project Foo below for an example)
  • Owner - The one (or rarely, two) people that own this project.

We have our own template for new projects.

Quarterly Goals and Plans

We track our work on SmartSheet in one summary sheet and divided according to our current goals:

Automation Development

Some of our projects can be accomplished in a short time while others will take longer, even several months. The prioritized projects reflect the most important projects in the current quarter and include the appropriate tasks which have to be fulfilled during that time. Other active projects have lower priority.

If you are interested in already finished projects, check our projects archive. We also have a some projects that we would like to do in the future!
