The whole Test View is hard to navigate when you have more than 15 tests in the view. I also like NUnit better in that you have one window where you see everything happening. Anyways, I'm sure MS will take all the feedback and improve the tool for the next release. 
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;If you are interested, I've posted about how you can use TypeMock.NET to mock out external dependencies when doing TDD. The sample is out of a SOA type application. You can find it at &lt;a rel="nofollow" target="_new" href="http://exceptionz.blogspot.com/2006/01/using-typemocknet-to-mock-external.html"&gt;http://exceptionz.blogspot.com/2006/01/using-typemocknet-to-mock-external.html&lt;/a&gt;.
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;In the near future there should be some interesting stuff happening with VS2005 and Fit Testing. Some real cool stuff... But it will have to wait for now...</description></item><item><title>Help Us Help You</title><link>http://blogs.msdn.com/robcaron/archive/2006/01/31/520999.aspx#542686</link><pubDate>Fri, 03 Mar 2006 07:26:45 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">91d46819-8472-40ad-a661-2c78acb4018c:542686</guid><dc:creator>The Braidy Tester</dc:creator><description>Rob Caron is looking for testers and test leads willing to have a couple Microsofties come to your place...</description></item></channel></rss>
