You'll learn how to-

Combine commands, control flow, handle errors, write scripts, run scripts remotely, and test scripts with the PowerShell testing framework, Pester

Parse structured data like XML and JSON, work with common domains (like Active Directory, Azure, and Amazon Web Services), and create a real-world server inventory script

Design and build a PowerShell module to demonstrate PowerShell isn't just about ad-hoc scripts

Use PowerShell to create a hands-off, completely automated Windows deployment

Build an entire Active Directory forest from nothing but a Hyper-V host and a few ISO files

Create endless Web and SQL servers with just a few lines of code!

Real-world examples throughout help bridge the gap between theory and actual system, and the author's anecdotes keep things lively.
