Pragmatic Unit Testing in C# with NUnit is the way to go. You will be using the framework within hours of reading this book. It doesn't waste your time mulling around in long-winded expose'. Rather it gets straight to the point and explains things in familiar, pragmatic ways. You will find out how easy it is to unit test your .NET applications. This is highly recommended for learning and using NUnit to unit test your C# programs."
