Physical test




Type of product test in quality assurance

A physical test is a qualitative or quantitative procedure that consists of determination of one or more characteristics of a given product, process or service according to a specified procedure.[1] Often this is part of an experiment.


Physical testing is common in physics, engineering, and quality assurance.

Purposes


Physical testing might have a variety of purposes, such as:



  • if, or verify that, the requirements of a specification, regulation, or contract are met

  • Decide if a new product development program is on track: Demonstrate proof of concept

  • Demonstrate the utility of a proposed patent

  • Provide standard data for other scientific, engineering, and quality assurance functions

  • Validate suitability for end-use

  • Provide a basis for Technical communication

  • Provide a technical means of comparison of several options

  • Provide evidence in legal proceedings



Performance testing


Some physical testing is performance testing which covers a wide range of engineering or functional evaluations where a material, product, or system is not specified by detailed material or component specifications. Rather, emphasis is on the final measurable performance characteristics. Testing can be a qualitative or quantitative procedure.
Many Acceptance testing protocols employ performance testing e.g. In the stress testing of a new design of chair.



Examples of performance testing



  • Building and Construction Performance Testing


  • Fire protection (ASTM D176)


  • Packaging Performance (hazardous materials, dangerous goods, ASTM D4169)

  • Performance Index for Tires (ASTM F538)

  • Performance Test Code on Compressors and Exhausters (ASME PTC 10 - 1997)


  • Personal protective equipment performance

  • Several Defense Standards

  • Wear of Textiles (ASTM D123)
