I really want to start doing UT in my code.
Yes, it's time consuming(it seems like this at first :) ).
Yes, the amough of code is approximatelly the same as your original code.
But hey, then you have unit tests you can easily know that all your classes and etc works correctly, you can easily catch bugs, you can easily reproduce the bugs latter.
And in the end it really helps to save time after you finish your product, because it's tested already in some cases, and if some bug happens you can easily write a test for it and see what will happen, Then you exactly will know what went wrong.
