I spent some time looking over the SpaceX website, which is a bit of an education. It shows how the rocket is put together and the various tests made prior to launch.
These were obtained from SpaceX website:
First Flight of the Dragon Spacecraft - Highlights
Commercial Crew Development (CCDEV)
Multiple Draco Test Firings
Dragon Spacecraft Separation Test
Falcon 9 Flight 1 Static Firing, Close
Falcon 9 Flight 1 Static Firing, Wide
Falcon 9 Flight 1 vertical
Falcon 9 Flight 1 rollout
Update:
Got this one via Twitter link. It is a test drop of the Dragon capsule from 14,000 feet. It was a test of the parachute deployment and recovery of the capsule from the ocean.
