I would start by writing a simple test for your BLL component. It will
fail, of course, but that's o.k. Then work your way back down the call
stack to the point where you are getting data back.

A failing test is o.k., and even expected, when you first start
creating your tests. Create the test, watch it fail, then start doing
the things necessary for it to succeed. If you write a test that shows
a success without actually getting the tables back, you won't know if
something breaks in the DAL later on so this is probably a good
technique.

Anyway, good luck!
