| Welcome to the **Special Edition of Software Testing Weekly**!Today's 52nd issue marks a year since I started this project. Over the past year, I've shared with you nearly a thousand (!) carefully selected links.And on this special occasion, I present you with **the best links of 2020**. It's a mix of the most popular ones with the ones that I found the most valuable.Thank you for writing, sharing and reading. I'm amazed by what we've been able to create in a year and I'm excited to see more of that in 2021.Happy New Year! 🎉*[Dawid Dylowicz](https://linkedin.com/in/dawid-dylowicz/?utm%5Fcampaign=Software%2BTesting%2BWeekly&utm%5Fsource=Software%5FTesting%5FWeekly%5F52)*                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                       |
