Why read it?
1 author picked Working Effectively with Unit Tests as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
I was quite late in picking up this book after it got published in 2014. Turned out that this mistake was all mine. Although the book is very opinionated, this masterpiece is filled with many nuggets of wisdom when it comes to writing highly maintainable unit tests. There are lots of code examples to be found as well. The ideal book to read after Test-Driven Development By Example and Growing Object-Oriented Software, Guided By Tests.
From Jan's list on starting your software developer journey.
