Multiple times in my s/w development career, I've had supervisors ask me why I am not typing code throughout the work day.

My response each time was along the lines of:

  When I write code, it is to reify the part of a solution which
  I understand.  This includes writing tests to certify same.

  There is no reason to do so before then.
