  6. How to Fail Your Test Automaton (easily!)
    60+ Lessons I’ve Learned (and Unlearned) from Failed Test Automation
    Masoud Bahrami

    Let’s make a confession. This handbook is about me, and, I suspect, about you, your team, and your organization too.I’ve made almost every mistake listed in these pages. I’ve seen them repeated in startups, enterprise systems, and everything in between, while mentoring teams, auditing architectures, or helping companies rediscover what testing is really for. The point isn’t to assign blame. It’s to hold up a mirror. Because the truth is, most of these mistakes are so common, you can probably spot a few right now; in your code, your team, or your last retrospective.When we talk about test failures or mistakes, the first thing that usually comes to mind is developers, missed edge cases, flaky tests, broken pipelines.

  8. What happens when software begins to think for itself? The Rise of AI-Native Software takes you on a journey through the evolution of coding, from human-written logic to AI-generated intelligence. Ayodeji Stephen Saliu reveals how artificial intelligence is transforming development workflows, redefining productivity, and birthing a new generation of “AI-native” applications that learn, adapt, and co-create with humans.Through vivid examples and frameworks, the book uncovers how developers can move beyond automation toward true cognitive collaboration. This is not a story of machines replacing engineers, but of a partnership that amplifies human potential, unleashing creativity, precision, and innovation at scale.

  9. What happens when machines stop merely assisting developers and start thinking with them?Developer Productivity and Cognitive Automation takes you inside the next evolution of software engineering: where AI becomes your co-creator, automation becomes cognitive, and productivity is measured not in lines of code, but in focus, creativity, and flow.Through vivid stories, from high-pressure fintech teams in Lagos to AI-powered engineering squads in the UK, the book unveils how the smartest organizations are redefining “developer productivity” around mental energy, collaboration, and innovation. Whether you’re a coder, team lead, or tech executive, this book shows you how to build systems that amplify human intelligence, not replace it
