    Learning about testing

    Is there a tutorial online, or even a good book, that goes into detail on testing in visual studio? I get the general concept but I feel like I'm missing out on a huge resource because I have only just glazed over the subject. Since I feel like I'm getting pretty self-sufficient in solving most of my VB problems on my own I wanted to start expanding into other areas of development, like testing, best practices, etc.

    Thanks!

    I am interested in this too. I looked at amazon but a lot of the books on testing have gotten poor reviews.
