The only but Best Book I have seen

This is the First book that discuss testing web application using Microsoft ACT (which I find not the best testing tool, see Astra Load Test, it is perfect).the book will divide the testing to phases and tiers, for example it dicusses how to optimized and find bottle neck in web tier (ASP.net Code), managed code and SQL server.I didn't find anther book that discuss "Stress Testing ASP.net" application.The will tell you how the found the "Memory Leakage" and they will tell you their exprience in finding problems with web sites.If you r intented to "know" how to stress test you application, buy this book now
