This book is an indispensable resource.
Serves as a valuable and humbling encouragement to double down and test well, something we need no matter how experienced we may be.
I wish I had this book twenty years ago when I was starting my career in software development.
This is the kind of book on unit testing I have been waiting on for a long time.
