Sorry for the direct plug, but I wrote something specifically for this purpose.

My upcoming book "Ruby Best Practices" has a fairly comprehensive,
somewhat framework-agnostic overview of testing principles and
practices.

Should be printed within the next week or so.  It's already at the
printers, and the full PDF is available now.

If you want a whole book on testing though, and are interested in
BDD/RSpec, you might want to check out the RSpec book, currently in
beta:

I've not read it, but its nice to see a whole book dedicated to testing...
