Krakow, Poland, 25 - 27 August 2021
With more than 15 years in the IT sector, I have built my expertise around the following three key pillars: java development, data and education. As a coach and lifelong learner, I have a natural curiosity to understand the challenges and create better solutions. Following this mindset, I have recently finished Magna Cum Laude the Postgraduate in Big Data and Analytics in Business at KU Leuven, pursuing a better understanding of the challenges faced in the sector. In my spare time, I spend time with one partner, two kids and four guitars. If time permits, I also like to try out new technologies on pet projects.
Automate boring tasks, save time & learn something new!
Tools-in-ActionWe’ve all been there: repetitive, boring tasks we like to postpone. First of that kind that pops up in your mind: filling out timesheets!
While working at a Telco project, we had to fill out timesheets in the most archaic, nerve-wrecking system. Soon I was fed up and decided to automate this process with calling a REST Api, Selenium and some python programming. Soon I noticed I could automate other repetitive tasks.
In this talk I’ll present my journey of how I made my life somewhat easier. I’ll present some real-life examples including filling timesheets, posting deployment updates, updating your environment, ... and give some tips and advice how you can find those boring tasks you might be able to automate!
Scheduled on Wednesday from 17:10 to 17:40 in Room 4
