One of my goals for this year is do more writing, like this blog post, but also eBooks - which I've been wanting to write for a long time.

I had an idea some time ago to write about automated testing and test-driven development in Drupal - inspired by other courses and books like Ansible for Devops by Jeff Geerling, and Refactoring to Collections and Test-Driven Laravel by Adam Wathan, and more recently Docker Essentials by Matthew Setter, and Modern Software Engineering by Dave Farley.

I've restarted my work on the Test-Driven Drupal book recently; finalising its scope, deciding what sort of examples I want to include, and building an example conference website with Drupal 9 which is publicly accessible on GitHub so people can see my progress as I continue building it.
