The best way to learn (IMHO) is to work with others who REALLY know how to do it. I had been doing what I thought was TDD for 5 years before I joined a TDD consultancy. I was lucky to have colleagues who helped me improve. So if you get the opportunity to pair with experienced TDDists then I suggest you take it. You’ll learn so much. One way may be to join a local coding dojo meetup or software crafter meetup if you can find one (see softwarecrafters.org).

Since you’re a front-end dev, you might also be interested in my book, Mastering React Test-Driven Development. It covers unit testing and also acceptance testing with Cucumber and Puppeteer.
