Your agent's dashboard is green. Your evaluators report an 87% pass rate. Then a customer complaint reveals the system has been confidently fabricating regulatory citations for three weeks. The evaluators weren't broken — they were measuring the wrong things. This field guide exists because the gap between "we have evals" and "our evals actually protect us" is larger than most teams realize.

Kalman Filters Made Easy is a clear, intuitive introduction to one of engineering’s most powerful tools for dealing with noisy, imperfect, real‑world data. Instead of drowning you in equations, this book builds deep understanding through real examples — from drifting GPS signals to unpredictable sensor timing — and shows how engineers combine noisy measurements and imperfect models to estimate what’s really happening. If you work with robotics, drones, autonomous systems, or sensor‑driven devices, this guide gives you the mental models you need to design reliable systems in an uncertain world. This reflects the book’s core message: “The world gives us noisy, imperfect measurements. We want clean, reliable, accurate information. The filter is the bridge between the two.”

This book is written for anyone who wants to understand what testing and testing leadership are all about. A better understanding will help to lead and improve your testing - whether testing is outsourced or in-house. CEO, CIO, or CTO - this is the testing book for you, too! It's also for anyone who works with software: product owners, project managers, system analysts, developers, testers, test managers, and many others, including students. We have created ACT 2 LEAD mnemonic to help you in leading testing.  Read the book to learn what it means!

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.

Covers everything you need to know to get off the ground with UI testing. Examples are built using real-world scenarios, showing how you would actually write your tests. It's a step-by-step guide on how to effectively write UI test automation for the real world.
