Discussion on: Why do great developers love writing tests?

I know college courses rarely touch the subject, as they rarely touch many aspects of real-life / industry software development.

About js, I think it's the same as with other aspects of the ecosystem: it's not about the framework, it's about what you do with it. The fw should be only a medium, a helper to get there.

If you're really lost about where to start, there's always tutorials about the hottest and latest fw/library (even for testing). Pick one and try to apply it to your applications. If you see value in it, and it becomes a habit, you'll be able to translate it into any other fw that comes along.

Fwks should be approaches to the solutions: if you know the problem well enough then you can choose which one suits you best.
