Manage time, resources better by scheduling automated tests
By Vaibhav Rangare (vrangare@in.ibm.com), System Software Engineer, IBM
Scheduling a test in an automated system not only helps you be more efficient and use lab resources more effectively, but helps you monitor results. Learn the considerations, the components of a scheduling subsystem, the functionality that it should include, and how to develop it by using Java.

One answer
Something to keep in mind when scheduling your tests is resource utilization. If you know when your systems are busy, and when they are idle, you can schedule your tests during the idle time to increase your system utilization.
This implies that you have some sort of resource monitoring in place (which is a part of a well run production build/test infrastructure).
