Alternator Replacement

["Thomas Adams" <tadams2@domain.elided>]

Hello All,
My battery went dead today and I would assume I need to investigate the
alternator and voltage regulator.  Can anyone explain to me how to test and
determine which it is?  Also, if replacement of either is needed, are there
any recommendations for upgraded alternators to use?
Thanks
