    How to succeed at accelerated testing

    Abstract
    Recent years have seen product development evolve into an increasingly fast-paced process that has a greatly abbreviated product life cycle. Today we take for granted accelerated testing to compress the product testing period. However, unless accelerated testing is performed in accordance with test objectives, whether to detect design flaws, to detect defects that appear in the field, or to accurately grasp (predict) product life, such testing is meaningless.
    This report shall look at accelerated testing with a focus on environmental stress, and shall also present some real world examples of the type of problems and failures by which the tester, especially one with limited experience, can easily be tripped up.

    Guidance for accelerated testing and reliability - For electrical and electronic parts and equipment -

    Abstract
    In this report, we would like to present the logic behind accelerated testing in an
    easily understandable way, from the standpoint of environmental testing used in the
    fields of electricity and electronics.

    Humidity Measurement and Control in the HAST

    Abstract
    In this article, we shall look at environmental factors such as temperature and humidity that are related to testing in this type of special environment. I shall also discuss the current state of actual testing equipment and test standards, as well as the methods of measuring and controlling humidity at temperatures exceeding 100 °C.
