"Change" by Graeme Maxton [1]. I read it recently and highly recommend it to non-scientists. It gives you an accessible forecast of the next 50 to 100 years, based on scientific research. [1] https://www.graememaxton.co

You can add a static "InitTest" method somewhere which initializes the modules. Use a double checked locking pattern [1] in there to make sure, that you instantiate and assign the modules used for testing exactly once. [1] https:

All fields in the Master class are interfaces. You simply assign Mock-Implementations in the testing scenario, once in a startup routine. Done.

It's kind of strange but refreshing, that an open source project mixes their releases with other unrelated issues, using their popularity to spread their word. But I guess, the larger and more known you get, the higher the chance to of
