Unit testing tutorial?

pj-co · 08-02-2008, 06:37 PM

Anyone here a big fan of unit testing with AS?

[edit]AS Unit DOES support AS3 .... [\edit] And more importantly I'm not sure where to get started. Anyone have opinions or favorite Unit tests or tutorials? any nudge in the right direction would be appreciated.

Edit:

So I slowly started to answer my own question and I am going to post here the resources I am reading and using to get started with Test Driven Development and Unit Testing. Opinions are very much encouraged on anything people have experienced in learning these things. I will try and keep the first post updated as I find stuff too.
