Can anyone recommend a source control tutorial for a test engineer based on TortoiseSVN? It needs to cover how to check stuff out in detail; the rest can be a bit sketchy if necessary.

+1  A: 

The first couple chapters of the "Version Control with Subversion" book might be good. The original version is available online, but even better the folks at TortoiseSVN have tweaked their own version.

If the above one is too long, there's a shorter visual tutorial by Sergio Lopes here.

The TortoiseSVN help file is excellent.

Chapter 2 on Versioning Models and Subversion in Action is a great explanation of how version control works and how TortoiseSVN is implemented.

Chapter 4 Daily Use Guide should cover be all that your test engineer needs to understand.
