# Best Practice 2.7 – Automate testing, integration, and deployment of changes
<a name="best-practice-2-7"></a>

Automate build, deployment, and testing of the workload. This reduces errors caused by manual processes and reduces the effort to deploy changes.

 **Suggestion 2.7.1 - Fully automate the integration and deployment pipeline from code check-in through build, testing, deployment, and validation** 

 **Suggestion 2.7.2 - Implement SAP Solution Manager ChaRM, Focused Build or third-party change and release management tools to orchestrate end-to-end build to deployment pipelines for application changes**
