If you just starting out with Unit testing, I would suggest you
picking up a good book covering the subject.
For starters I would recommend every developer to read "The pragmatic
programmer" (http://www.amazon.com/Pragmatic-Programmer-Journeyman-Master/dp/020161622X
)
and then to complete the circle of knowledge a book completely
covering the unit testing subject such as (http://www.amazon.com/Pragmatic-Software-Testing-Effective-Professional/dp/0470127902/ref=sr_1_5?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1248562222&sr=1-5
)
Please note that none of the books cover any specific language or
testing framework.
If you just are in a hurry trying to grab some new info and apply to
to your project, could you please describe more in detail what you
would like to accomplish and maybe I can get you started.
Info like type of testing needed, is it a library or a UI based
application, threading, data access etc.

I'd like to add unit testing to my app, but I'ma little bit unclear
on the concept. I've looked at Apple's docs on the Sentest framework
and had no trouble getting the sample project working, but I lose it
when translating the concepts to my particular application. I've
seen some sample projects around the net that use the Sentest
framework, but the the unit tests are trivially simple, asserting
that 1+1 = 2, for example. What I really need is a sample project of
some complexity that uses real unit tests against the project. Can
anyone help me out here?
This is not exactly unit testing per se, but if you want to exercise
your
app thru its interface, you might want to consider GUI scripting.
With GUI
scripting you can both drive and read an application's interface
through
Apple events. One good way to implement a battery of GUI scripting
tests is
with rb-appscript. m.
