This, in turn, brings about its own complexities, and if approached in a haphazard manner, you could very well end up with a bunch of rules that instead of increasing productivity end up causing more pain than before you started.
Having a set of guidelines to help you get the most out of your automation journey is what this chapter is all about.
We will learn where to begin by planning your rules, before diving into implementing them and how to approach writing your rules to ensure you maximize performance. Finally, we will be looking at some best practices to organize your rules to make it easier to manage and maintain them.
In this chapter, we'll cover the following topics:
- Planning your rules
