Mainframes are the unsung hero that runs our world. Though that is the case,
it's not talked or taught about and is often thought of as something complex or
antiquated to use. What if I told you we could simplify that? What if we did
that using Python? What if we could bring up images, run workloads, and then
tear down that image after a set amount of time? Would it simplify dev/test
environments? Would it speed up the time it takes for a new hire to get familiar
with the systems? What if I told you a version of this already exists? I want to
show off some of the code that I use to make my life as a tester at IBM easier.
