Testing is an integral part of product compliance, research and development (R&D), and quality assurance (QA). It helps to ensure that products meet the standards expected by consumers and regulators, as well as provide feedback from customers to guide future innovation. Testing can range from simple functional testing—such as evaluating a product’s ability to meet its stated goals—to sophisticated simulations designed to measure performance in extreme conditions. Additionally, testing can reveal design flaws or unexpected weaknesses in new products before they launch.
When it comes to product compliance, testing ensures that products are safe for use and comply with applicable regulations. For R&D purposes, testing can offer valuable insights into how effectively a prototype functions in comparison with similar products on the market or under ideal scenarios.
