Use this form to define and view the individual tests that determine whether your products meet quality specifications.
You can assign one or more individual tests to a test group. When doing this, you also specify test-specific information such as the acceptable measurement values. Measurement values are used for quantitative tests and test variables are used for qualitative tests.
A quantitative test has a test type of integer or fraction and a designated unit of measure. Quality specifications and test results are expressed as numbers.
A qualitative test has a test type of option. It requires additional information about the test variable that is being measured and its enumerated options. Quality specifications and test results are expressed according to an outcome.
Examples
A manufacturing company performs two tests on purchased material: a quantitative test about material quality and a qualitative test about packaging damage. The company defines additional information about the qualitative test to identify the test variable (damaged packaging) and its outcomes. The company uses the Test groups form to assign the two tests to a test group and to specify the test-specific information. The test group is assigned to a quality order, so that the company can report test results for the two tests.
