Test for a Purpose in Product Development!

The basic purpose of any test or analysis is to learn something or to demonstrate compliance with a performance standard. Both purposes are valid and vital to successful product development initiatives.

Product development teams must clearly separate testing that is done for the purpose of learning from testing that is done for the purpose of demonstrating compliance. Combining purposes causes confusion and delays new product introductions.
