I am always skeptical of putting engineering time aside until later as, and this may just be my experience, that "free" time is the first to go when deadlines, requests or issues arise.

That's when you plan for multiple sprints ahead and, when estimating or agreeing on a deadline, you say "4 sprints" and you already know that one will be purely tech.

Well, bottom line is, tests should be written from the hardest to the easiest, not the other (obvious) way around.
