Looking forward to 2020 and beyond I discussed what's in store in the next year and moving forward. A closing quote Software is a blast. At least, it should be. I want everyone to have fun writing software. Leaning on automated tests is the best way I know to allow me confidence and freedome to: - rewrite big chunks of code - play with the code - try new things - have fun without fear - go home feeling good about what I did - be proud of my code I want everyone to have that. That's why I promote and teach automated testing. I hope you had an amazing decade. And I wish you a productive and fun 2020 and the upcoming decade. If we work together and help eachother reach new heights, we can achieve some pretty amazing things
