I think SubSonic has great promise for that layer of an architecture. I am working a project using SubSonic now, it’s a very nice and complete tool. I think the LINQ-to-Entities in “Orcas” holds great promise as well.

Testing is tough, we don’t have a great test suite for this layer of our design but we are striving to implement it. Out team is very senior so experience isn’t really a problem but time and setting priorities.

Within your project – how much weight has your team/managment placed on unit test coverage? That is one thing our shop has found it difficult to stress, due to timelines & developer skill sets.
