I've built a couple of circuits now, and testing before I box it is the most frustrating part of the process. I've got a 'basic' test box set up (in, out, toggle switch, etc.) - but testing a circuit like a Mojo Hand Colossus gets frustrating...alligator clips on everything, trying to ground and make sure that audio jacks stay stable, and then the general rat's nest of wires and connectors...
Is there a 'K.I.S.S.' method to hooking up and testing a circuit?
