Tests should be written before the code. Test-first programming is practiced by only writing new code when an automated test is failing.

They also prevent tendencies to over-build the system based on speculation.

Similar to the answer above - the more you can fly each week; the sooner you will be done. Typically, if you can fly 2-3 times each week, your training can be completed in 3 to 4 months. Professional students can finish as soon as 6 weeks. <top>

delay receiving a seniority number with an airline. This directly effects the time required for captain upgrade and the potential lost income in the hundreds of thousands dollars.

Some students, however, may take longer to complete the course. q The main factor affecting hours and time to complete the course is the frequency you can fly. Ideally, if you can fly 3 to 5 times a week, you will spend minimal time every flight doing review and therefore minimize your time spent in the air.
