Get Rid of the Nits! Improving Content Quality By Using Automated Tools
This session is designed to empower content development teams to run automated tests and improve the quality of their deliverables. With a bit of code, anyone can build tools that identify common content nits. You might configure automation tools to:
– Check for broken links – Test accessibility
– Process translation files – Run a review instance of your content
– Check last modified dates for outdated content
– Apply filtering
– Apply content reuse
– Post Slack updates that contain stats from those scans for quick perusal every morning Through this session, I will provide a few tools and ideas for how content teams can get started automating CLI tools they use already and develop new tasks.
Learning objectives:
– Discover that common tasks can be automated.
– Describe tooling that can be used to develop automation.
– Apply the outlined methodology to make automation goals achievable.
– Collect code examples that can be built upon.
– Find education and support.
Frequently Asked Questions
When do education events take place?
Webinars are held every Wednesday afternoon from 2-3 PM EDT/EST (GMT-4/5).
A majority of online courses are held Tuesdays-Thursdays between 10:00 AM-1:00 PM EDT/EST (GMT-4/5), as to not conflict with webinar times.
When will I receive the GoTo Webinar instructions for an event?
Registered attendees will receive the GoTo Webinar instructions three (3) hours before the webinar begins, approximately at 11:00 AM EDT/EST.
Registered attendees will receive the GoTo Webinar instructions one (1) day before the online course begins.
To participate in a webinar and an online course, you must be able to access GoTo Webinar, STC's online meeting space. GoTo Webinar is a standard web seminar tool (no separate download required) and all you need is a reliable Internet connection and phone line, or a computer with VoIP capabilities.
I registered for an online course, what are my next steps?
Once you register for an online course, you will receive a confirmation receipt that day. A majority of our online courses uses Moodle, STC's course management site, which attendees will receive the login instructions two (2) days before the course begins.
If you cannot access Adobe Connect and/or Moodle (as needed), then you will not be able to successfully complete an online course.
I registered for a webinar, but will be unable to attend. Will a recording be available?
If a registered attendee is unable to attend a webinar that day, they will receive an email with a link to the recording, and an evaluation link along with the PDF of the presentation.
I registered for a webinar and/or an online course, but cannot attend at that time. Will I receive a refund?
If a registered attendee is unable to attend a webinar and/or an online course, the cost is transferable to a future event, but is not refundable. Online registration closes one-two business days before the education event begins.
I want to take a specific course that isn't listed online. Will it be offered in the future?
STC rotates its courses every year as we try to offer the most popular ones within the first half of the year. Online courses are subject to change or are offered more than once per quarter. If a course is not listed, STC will offer it again in the following year.
