📚 Keep helping me write this book!

I'm almost ready to put this online book into a publishable format. I need six more months of writing and then editing time. The end of the year seems like a reasonable timeframe. Since I shared my intention, I've received fantastic support from the community. Thank you 🙏

Please keep encouraging me; the final months are always challenging. You can help by giving feedback through comments, writing to me directly, or liking a post. It's all feedback that will help me understand the types of topics you find valuable.

🫱🏾‍🫲 How to Introduce QA Practices to Your Organization
🖥️ Whether your tech stack is brand new or teetering with age, any time is a good time to introduce Quality Assurance practices within your organization. What do I mean by QA practices?
