+100 on test first. 

Good reading on software development in general includes "The Pragmatic 
Programmer", "Extreme Programming Explained: 2nd Edition" and Mike Cohn's 
"Agile Estimating and Planning". There are a million good books, but those 
three wouldn't be a bad start to any programmers bookshelf.

There's also a great rspec book out there for the details of implementing 
testing in Ruby using rspec and cucumber.
