Build Order Testers
Qxc's Build Order Tester
This is the Build Order Tester created by Qxc, Day [9] showed it off on his Daily on Improving Timing. Its the one I have the most experience with however Qxc has stoped working on this Build Order Tester Lucky tho it has been picked up by other Map Makers. Its a little outdated but still a very good (basic) Build Order Tester.

Isbunk Build Order Tester
Isbunk picked up Qxc's Build Order Tester and added a lot of sweet new features, this Build Order Tester also allows you to try out your builds on actual maps and even records your past builds time, minerals, supply, etc. Its a improvement to an already great Build Order Tester.

Skeldark/Jeeks Build Order Tester (BOTV2)
I haven't had a chance to personally try out this Build Order Tester but just like Isbunk's Build Order Tester this is an improvement to Qxc's. This one allows for many of the same features as Isbunk's however they are working on timing attacks to implement and if I am not mistaken have already added some zerg time attacks to test your build against. This Build Order Tester also sports a viewable history and a list of your Build Order. Some pretty cool stuff.

Nice list!
qxc make this cewl idea and isbunk improved it but both dont work on it anymore.
We take isbunks version and rewrite it.
so the diffrence between our and yabot:
YABOT
they focus more on atacks and train build orders of other people with a freerun option
BOTV2
we focus more on make your own buildorder so we show many stats and make it run on ANY map
but our atack funktion is nothing against yabot i think i will not improve it or take it out because why make something whats allready there.
so i focus more on stats and remind funktions and savepoint system later
btw if you are a mapeditor and wanna help pm me.

Yet Another Build Order Tester (YABOT)
This is a pretty cool Build Order Tester, you pick your race and your build order at the start of the map. Youll then be given a list of what to build at which supply and the computer will send 3 waves of attacks at you. After 7 minutes the game ends and your given a score based on your performance. You can choose to create your own Build Order and even choose which Build Order the Computer will preform. Its a really fun tool to play with that I suggest everyone tryout.
1)The comment you added from skeldark is not entirely accurate. We actually show the same stats as his and we are highly geared toward custom build orders, especially with our new online tool: www.xorpwnz.com/YABOT Using this tool people can easily design build orders, and then play them in the map
2) Also YABOT has been mentioned on the Day[9] dailies twice now (once on 6/9 and once on 6/10), so would it be possible to add something about it also being mentioned by Day[9]?

Other Helpful Custom Maps
Stet_Tcl's Multitask Trainer
This is a awesome tool to greatly improve your Multitasking ability. You must defeat a Terran base while you control a probe that is constantly being chased by a zergling as you defend against drops and timing pushes oh and you have to rescue some dude to. You must do all of this without reaching a predetermined resource cap, without your probe dieing a certain amount of times, and before time expires. Lucky there are multiple difficulty settings. This is a lot of fun and should keep everyone busy for awhile =P

Qxc's So You Think You Can Micro
A cool looking map made by Qxc I haven't messed around with it but a Qxc Map cant be bad =P This map is made to work on Terran Micro but the skills youll learn can obviously be applied to any race. Some of the challenges youll face are Banshee vs. marine, Hellion vs. speedling, marauder vs. roach, marauder vs. hydra, marauder vs. early protoss units, marine/marauder vs. baneling, reaper vs. early tier, and practice tank range by using a viking to spot. Another awesome map by Qxc I suggest all Terran players give this map a try.

This is just some of the maps I have been using over the last few weeks, like I said above I will keep this post up to date with any helpful new maps I come across also if anyone knows any maps that weren't listed please feel free to add them to the comments section bellow. Thanks for your time everyone, Enjoy!
AI Maps (Computer Controlled Opponents)
Behemoth AI
This is a very interesting AI map that is trying to play at the Diamond level. However this is a VERY early Alpha version of the map it is still pretty good. Currently it seems to be just Protoss vs Zerg with you playing as the Zerg player. The AI does the same build every game but besides a few annoying bugs like the Computers Phoenixs not attacking Mutas and the computer knowing where your at. This map is decently difficult youll probaly win the majority or your games but its still good training for in game practice.

Mimic AI
[Thanks:Spyridon]
A pretty cool map that takes a different approach on the whole AI thing. Basically on you first play of the map the computer does nothing you build up normally with your selected race and once you defeat the computer the AI will remember your build and save it in its memory. Mimic can save up to 30 builds and you can choose the build you want to play against. This is a great map for people that are a little more experienced and are having trouble with builds they can perform a quick example would be Terran Mech vs Zerg you can pick Terran do a basic Mech buid then work on defeating it as Zerg or for people that have roommates/friends and want to play against there builds. I really like this map and think it has a lot potential especially once your able to trade builds to one another. Cool map check it out!

Mouse Precision
Maverck's Reflex
This is a pretty cool map you control a high templar with unlimited feedback. Your goal is to feedback the suv's as they spawn miss to many and the game ends. Of course the suv spawn rate increases as the game progress. This is a nice mouse precision game which will help getting your mouse set at that perfect sensitivity.
