What we have so far is this:

    http://doc.bazaar-vcs.org/latest/developers/testing.html

There's also a full (automatically generated) API reference for bzrlib at:

    http://starship.python.net/crew/mwh/bzrlibapi/

(Both are linked from http://doc.bazaar-vcs.org/latest/developers/index.html)

You can find the source to testing.html in bzr's source at
doc/developers/testing.txt.  Patches welcome!
