Do Reliability Testing That Adds Value, Informs Decisions, and Provides Information
Reliability testing is expensive, time-consuming, and fraught with errors. Is it worth the effort? Is it necessary? Let’s explore relegating testing to only a ‘when necessary’ status. Let’s explore what you and your team can do instead.
Testing results arrive late in the development program, often too late to improve reliability. The development team requires reliability performance feedback much earlier to make design and process improvements effectively.
The dilemma is many organizations rely on prototype testing to create the first estimates of product reliability performance. You can and should do better.
Let’s explore the alternatives to testing you may want to employ. Plus, let’s ensure the little testing generates the necessary reliability information efficiently and effectively. Given the typical testing investment, reliability testing should provide significant value to the team.
In this webinar, we will discuss poor and best practices around reliability testing, plus a handful of viable alternatives to limit the need for reliability testing.
