Ask HN: Tutorial teaching a team new to testing and CI how to get started?

A company I work with is in dire straits. They have been delivered a bunch of barely functional very unstable code for a ridiculous amount of money. They have a mixture of in-house people and hired guns that together have built this totally over-the-top solution. I'm coaching them - hands off for now - on getting things back under control.

One of their biggest flaws - besides the over-engineering - is that they have absolutely atrocious testing. I want them to make a start with and eventually move over completely to automated testing. But when I figured I'd send them a couple of links to get them on their way I realized that there are a lot of crappy tutorials but not a single one that stands out as the reference for automated testing for distributed teams.

Is there anybody on HN that can point at a reference for a start-to-finish approach to automated testing?

Pre-emptive thanks for giving this your time.
