Testing Execution
5. Perform Tests: Conduct various tests on the PCBs, such as functional testing, stress testing, and environmental testing.
6. Data Collection: Record test results meticulously, noting any anomalies or failures.
Analysis and Troubleshooting
7. Analyze Results: Analyze the test data to identify any issues or patterns.
8. Troubleshoot Issues: Work on troubleshooting and diagnosing any problems found during testing. This may involve collaborating with design engineers.
