Summary

This chapter summarized good coding practice, outlined the use of repeatable code, and ways to use that code for other general uses. It built a longer code base, provided methods for keeping the flow of development from concept, to thought, to action, and summed up a version control system to keep historical information into the script management structure, in order to help make the whole script traceable from inception to final iteration.

In the next chapter, we bring these VMware administrative scripts together and mash them with the standard Windows administrative script enabling the provisioning, operating, and decommissioning of a VM and establishing the Windows workflow as part of the same script.
