Editorial Review:
Accelerated Testing and Validation Methods is a cross-disciplinary guide that describes testing and validation tools and techniques throughout the product development process. Alex Porter not only focuses on what information is needed but also on what tools can produce the information in a timely manner. From the information provided, engineers and managers can determine what data is needed from a test and validation program and then how to select the best, most effective methods for obtaining the data.

This book integrates testing and validation methods with a business perspective so readers can understand when, where, and how such methods can be economically justified. Testing and validation is about generating key information at the correct time so that sound business and engineering decisions can be made. Rather than simply describing various testing and validation techniques, the author offers readers guidance on how to select the best tools for a particular need, explains the appropriateness of different techniques to various situations and shows how to deploy them to ensure the desired information is accurately gathered.

* Emphasizes developing a strategy for testing and validation
* Companion CD includes example spreadsheets, program source code, case studies, video clips and much more
* Teaches how to design a testing and validation program that deliver information in a timely and cost-effective manner

Accelerated Testing 2008-08-07
I scanned through the book carefully. It is well written, but stories only. The book does not have the "hands-on" that I need.


Excellent!!!!! 2005-08-09
It was everything I expected it to be , but more. I definately rate this a 100%.


Excellent Approach to a New Form of Product Testing 2004-08-09
Alex Porter has given the reader an easy to follow explanation of accelerated stress testing (AST), when to use it, the possible choices available and when each choice should be applied. Rather than concentrating on the equations that describe statistical reliability, as most previous texts have done, Alex describes this new approach in straight-forward prose. The result is a story that can be followed by new-to-the-field product developers, as well as by older, more experienced engineers. The first three chapters would be especially valuable to Managers, as they define when data is actually information, the time value of information and when the application of accelerated test methods is most important. Several chapters detail the variety of available accelerated testing techniques, together with the pros and cons of each. The last few chapters introduce a new concept - the Hypothesis Matrix - which is derived from a detailed DFMEA and a knowledge of AST methods, arriving at a way to answer a primary question of new product development - "what will break this product and how?" The book is filled with interesting theory, examples and antidotes to lead the reader to subject knowledge and comprehension. It is an excellent counterpoint to the more traditional texts, and priced to be available to everyone.


Hands-On Accelerated Testing 2004-06-14
If you're looking for practical accelerated test methods for the real world, then this book is for you. I work with Alex Porter at Intertek ETL Entela, and have edited many of his technical papers. He has extensive knowledge of a variety of test methods, and he writes technical material in a manner that is very user-friendly and easy to understand (even for someone in Marketing!). There is no pie-in-the-sky engineering theory here, just hands-on test methods.
