- Hardware Test subjects in academic educationPublication . Sarmento, Ruben; Pereira, Filipe; Felgueiras, CarlosNo electronic product can be manufactured without an underlying test strategy, as this operation can assume 90 % of the overall cost of the product. This paper explores the need for testing in the context of electronic hardware development and production, and how its absence from normal university curriculums is affecting its presence during the design of industry-developed hardware. Testing strategies are discussed and an example is presented to explain the advantages of test development. An analysis is done at several random universities in order to try to understand and bring to light how such an important step in the development of a circuit is not present in the learned skill set of a newly graduated hardware development engineer.
