Description

Measurements of the vector boson production in $pp$ collisions at $\textbf{LHC}$ form important part of physics programme of the $\textbf{ATLAS}$ Collaboration. More than 50 publications dealing with this topic have been published up to now. All aspects of W/Z physics studied at hadron colliders are covered. Predictions of Standard model are usually tested at least at NLO accuracy, NNLO becomes a standard in the more recent publications. Majority of publications use $\textbf{Run 1}$ data, but the first analyses based on $pp$ collisions at $\sqrt{s}=13$ $TeV$ collected during $\textbf{Run 2}$ period were published recently.
Selection of recent results is presented and future perspectives are described.
