In the UK, for motorbike tests one does a computer based test, then practices with a company on a private off-road test area. One must pass a test then before being able to practices under instruction on public roads. Once sufficiently practiced one can take the test.

Basically what you propose?

As for comprehensive testing - I think the UK car and motorbike tests are quite good, not comprehensive, but they demonstrate a general ability across a range of skills. Humans can be expected to act relatively consistently (in such things), the test must be more comprehensive when treating a system that you can't expect to have innate consistency.
