I see posts about automating your work flow, but if your aim is to save time by automation consult this handy chart

    Yeah but it's lacking. It, for example, doesn't tell me if creating a test automation system that takes away a weekly task of 32 hours (4 browsers, ~8 hours each and continuous deployment) makes sense if it takes around 4 months.

    @Godisalie if four months is 80 work days and you spend 4 days a week on that task, isn't the break-even point 81 days into not having to do it, which when you only look at 4 days a week is 20 weeks and a day? (roughly 5 months after the 4 months investment)

    Full disclosure I'm awful at maths.
    ..Also thinking about it after working all that out I'm not even sure if your query was purely for illustrating. 😂

    @AnonymousGuy Well, of course it breaks even at some point, not counting the maintenance of course, but how should I organise my life according to the infinite knowledge of webcomics if they do not cover every case? ^^

    @Godisalie the slight absurdity of this point indicates perhaps that your original reservation is somewhat - pernickety ;)
