Efficiency and automation have emerged as the secrets to success in the constantly changing world of software development. The era of manual code deployments, time-consuming testing procedures, and monotonous development activities is quickly passing away. Instead, a new era is beginning, one that is propelled by strong tools and procedures that shorten the development lifecycle and enable developers to concentrate on what they do best—create excellent software.
