That's my assumption too, but we're talking about a different era, and I really have no idea how they approached validation and test/troubleshooting.

I've seen some test environments for manned missions, but that's really for humans to validate what they're doing.

V'ger was quick 'n dirty by comparison (with no criticism of the process or folks involved...they had one chance to get these missions out there).
