I refer to my mission testing methodology as "PTFI" or in other words Press to '**** it'. It's a bit like the space shuttle's "Press to MECO" except that if nothing breaks, the trajectories are acceptable and I'm not hungry - then I call "Press to '**** it'" and just carry right on out to wherever the party's at. On many occasions this has seen an unwitting and unprepared Kerbalnaut eating his sandwiches during a routine engine test or suborbital staging checkout, only to hear "Press to **** it" - and then the poor guy doesn't see his family again for 9 months after an impromptu flyby of Eve. The PTFI methodology is also the primary inducer of sleepless nights and 10-snooze mornings on the part of the KSP director.
