I use rhino and you can do the test designs on the program without purchase.

I did the rhino course a few years back in TAFE and got the programs at a subsidezed price
The tutorials are good and ive been given a CD of additional ones to try eventually.
best of luck with it.

Ok. I'm a computer tech by trade. So I don't like spending much if not any money on programs at all. I haven't used these programs yet. But I found a site that has options and descriptions on programs that you can use.
It's great if you can use programs online but if your Internet is slow for any reason you may find yourself having a headache.
But like I said I haven't used it yet. Anyway here's the page.

Rock on...
