5500 Integrating Testing into the Product Development Process

Summary

This module begins by addressing the reasons for testing, looks at the customers of the test lab, and their needs and expectations. The automotive product development cycle is then analyzed. The information required at each point in the development process is discussed, along with how to choose the most appropriate test, given the constraints of cost and time.

This module also discusses the end-users of the product, and the levels of abstraction between the customer and the designer's desktop.

Understanding the concepts presented in this module is essential for the design of cost efficient, time efficient tests.
