I fiddled with an idea where I wrote unit tests and used them for a scoring function to train a model. Writing the number of tests and encoding the logic for a simple Linked List took orders of magnitude more code than coding the list itself.

I suspect (based on stuff like https://arxiv.org/abs/1510.08419) that you'd have had more luck with property tests instead of unit tests.
