2- Owning automated testing: understand which kind of tests the dev team creates, make sure it is convenient for the dev team to add new tests and get results from the build system rapidly and efficiently. Latency and throughput of the build and test cluster: improve it and maintain on a great level. Manage CI cluster hardware and cloud instances in a very automated fashion. Facilitate team members’ use of the build and test system.
