Hello
Although testing is of course very important to ultimately have good quality code, it cannot be used as a substitute for hard thinking. If the system you are going to make is quite complex, there is nothing which beats a phase of meditation to come up with a good architecture.
My advice : take an empty sheet of paper, write nothing at all, and certainly no code, until you have a mental picture of the solution. Only then, try to write down this mental picture, iterate the process so that it becomes clearer.
I have often been suprised how productive a phase of apparently producing nothing at all can be.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
