The Hubble took a little over ten years to build and develop. It's launch was postponed to 1990 because of the Challenger disaster.

Why do you automatically assume testing for a complicated and delicate machine is inefficient or not streamlined? That's a pretty bold assumption with zero evidence.
Understanding failure modes doesn't help test and validate something any faster. There's a finite number of hours in a day and components need some proscribed amount of testing.
