Resources for Coded UI test are updated on my resources page

We plan to add the content index for Load Test and other test types and roll up this data onto the team blog. Since this data will be getting updated often, I have put this up as a page on my blog and refresh it periodically. I suggest readers link to that page for an up-to-date content index.
