Testing / Validation

Fibet are at the forefront of testing and validation activities, to ensure that all solutions are robust and can operate throughout the expected lifespan of the application.

We can either apply our standard test methodologies in accordance with good working practices within the respective application/ field, or can apply bespoke test requirements in accordance with the customers’ specific needs.

This can include replicating a duty life cycle taken from the application – and recreating it via our extensive laboratory equipment.
