Tired of clicking through endless wizards just to spin up a lab? In this session, we'll show how AutomatedLab makes lab building fast, consistent, and code-driven—right from your PowerShell console.We'll start with the basics of AutomatedLab's cmdlets, then walk step-by-step through creating a full two-server Active Directory forest in minutes using its sample scripts. Along the way, you'll learn and see how AutomatedLab automates network setup, VM provisioning, domain configuration, and post-install testing—no manual intervention required.Next, we'll dive into a live walkthrough of a custom script that spins up a repeatable environment Domain Controller, Root CA, and Privileged Access Workstation for a complete lab with PKI. You'll learn how to parameterize lab builds, integrate external switches for internet access, and customize VM roles for your own scenarios.This is a practical, hands-on session designed for PowerShell admins and IaC beginners who want to see exactly how to rapidly build, tear down, and rebuild entire environments for testing or trainingCome for the live demos, stay for the reusable scripts, and walk away ready to replace manual lab builds with clean, repeatable code.
