I'm having a hard time envisioning a situation where testing my code requires a bunch of unused variables. Just don't declare the variables until you've started writing the code that uses them...

Most of the time you don't write the code, you change it.

I had tons of situations where I wanted to test deleting a code block which just happened to use an imported library, which the compiler is now complaining about because it's no longer being used.
