I read this book in search for good resources to include in my course for Manning "Refactoring to React Hooks". Lucas didn't disappoint. This is by far the most complete guide to testing JavaScript applications. From test organization to mocking and test doubles, Luca da Costa provides the reader with a solid foundation for writing well-organized, robust tests.

I’m using this book as a guide to write more deterministic and meaningful software tests.
This book shares some techniques that will help you to write better software tests and show use-cases examples.
I recommend this read for every developer who wants to improve in software development and tests as well.
