I'm new to developing, and I have a question about fees. For example, the maximum ETH to gain from the faucet is 0.1 ETH, and to deploy my contract on test net cost me 0.8, nearly all my ETH. How do you guys try your contracts, how do you deploy them on testnet, or do you gain somewhere else more eth than 0.1? Thanks for responding! Plz be aware that I'm new in all of this so if this sounds like something stupid don't get angry at me. Thanks !

You need to "mine"
test coins from a testnet faucet . You need atleast 2 gitcoin
passport points
to be able to mine sepolia
testnet coins, because there are a lot of bots mining and the faucet wants to verify you are a human. You can get passport points
by linking your socials, github etc to your wallet here -gitcoin passport
You can also prove that there are transactions you have undertaken on ethereum
mainnet
from the same wallet to get passport points
.

Another option is Alchemy or Infura. https://www.infura.io/faucet/sepolia https://www.alchemy.com/faucets/ethereum-sepolia
I would like to see your Smart Contract or your Project, because until now I haven't seen such high fees.
