Going Pragmatic on CVS and Unit tests

After reading this thread comparing JUnit in Action to Pragmatic Unit Testing, I broke down and bought both the CVS and Unit testing books. They're short and sound sweet - just how I like 'em. I'm hoping I can knock each one out in a few days.

I definitely need to learn more about using (when/how) Mock Objects for unit testing - my fingers are crossed that this book has the answers I'm looking for.

How are you knocking "tech" books out in a couple of days? Do you not work on example code? How many hours are you spending a day reading? I find I take a long time on books that are covering a new subject. It's mostly spent in working on all the example code, but... I feel I'm grasping the material better. Erik

Erik - I tend to shy away from playing with the sample code unless I need it right away. Rather, I try to remember that I saw it in the book. It does me no good to play with the sample code most times b/c I'll forget it in two weeks if I don't use it. So I wait until I need it, then I look for the sample code. If I were to read and try out the samples at the same time - I'd never get any reading done! ;-)
