Development process

I’m slowly teaching myself all the habits of a good programmer. Using
plent
of tests, finally figuring out how to truly set up a development
environment, how to use SVN, etc etc.

The problem I’m having is I’m having to stumble across all these
individual
concepts and tools that are leading me up to what a lot of people
already
know how to do… is there some kind of resource I can go to that will
teach
me about things like CI, how to effectively use a project management/bug
tracking system, and all these other little things that add up to make a
good development environment?

Thanks,

Luke

Take a look at the Pragmatic Programmers range of books. You should find
plenty of inspiration there.
