I am looking for something along the same lines as this article: "Go With Go(Lang): Features and Testing Frameworks", featuring Clojure/Clojurescript. Similarly, any book(s) that contain examples of Clojure/Clojurescript being used as to create devops/test-automation applications, would also help.
Your question is a bit vague, but Clojure is IMHO the best general-purpose computer language (no surprise since you asked on a Clojure site!).
One solution that might work for you is the Babashka tool. It allows you to turn Clojure code in to a stand-alone executable. So, instead of using quirky, fragile bash scripts, you can write a robust & powerful Clojure program that has the instant startup & low memory usage of a Go or C program.
For more general purposes, you can write a complete general-purpose Clojure program and interop with the outside O.S. with a function like tupelo.misc/shell-cmd or the original Clojure version from clojure.java.shell. I have used this to drive AWS CLI functions, for example listing, cloning, and deleting RDS database instances.
The sky is the limit (along with your imagination).
I forgot to mention GraalVM. It allows you to compile Clojure code into a static executable (the same as produced by a C/C++ program). Here is a Clojure/GraalVM demo project that creates a "Hello World" program even faster and more memory efficient than a Python script! Enjoy!
