It does thank you, learnt a bit about partial application when dabbled with Haskell, tho never never really got close to Monad stuff (io I guess?!). Now I'm trying to learn more about Rust also I identified references about "Working effectively with legacy code".

My point being, do you have more references for studying about tests?! As a NodeJs and Python developer today (with almost no tests) it's really hard work with these legacy code :|

Honestly, I think "Working Effectively with Legacy Code" is the main work in this field.

If you can pair with someone who habitually works TDD, do so. Sounds like getting experience in a team with effective modern practices (see "Accelerate" by Forsgren et al) could change your life for the better.
