While the new engineer may embark on a number of different career paths, two that are frequently followed are product development and its companion, product test. In either case, new engineers will run into four general types of testing required to bring a new product into the market: functional tests, field tests, usability tests, and classical tests. The first two tests may be accomplished in either the development or test organization and are frequently completed in both areas. In the first case, the developers wish to ensure that the product is meeting its specification (operating conditions, power sequences, and logical functions), while in the second, it is part of the charter of the product test group to ensure the product meets, and exceeds, the specification.
