It started good, covered a lot on node, mongodb and express. But the Angular and testing parts were not explained well and need to be focused on better.

Nice introduction to build single-page web applications using the MEAN stack (MongoDB, Express, AngularJS, and Node.js).
The books starts by covering the main concepts of SPA (MVC/MVVM/MV*), client and server-side topics and tools such as Yeoman, Bower, code generators, event loop, non-blocking code, callbacks, NPM, Mongoose, etc.
After this brief introduction this book explores the MEAN stack in detail, covering Node.js, Express, MongoDB and AngularJS building a real web application from scratch, explaining the groundwork for all of the server-side work (REST Services, Security, MongoDB Schemas, routing, etc.) and frontend (AngularJS, Yeoman, Bower).
And last but not least: unit and end-to-end testing using frameworks such as Jasmine, Karma, Protractor, and Selenium.
In my humble opinion, a good book to introduce you to some of the currently most popular tools/frameworks when developing modern web applications with JavaScript.
