Evaluate the Testing Process
Introductory Message
For the facilitator:

Welcome to TLE 8 CSS Module 18: Evaluate the Testing Process!

This module was collaboratively designed, developed and reviewed by educators

fromSchools Division Office of Pasig City headed by its Officer-In-Charge Schools
Division Superintendent, Ma. Evalou Concepcion A. Agustin in partnership with
the Local Government of Pasig through its mayor, HonorableVico Sotto.
The writers utilized the standards set by the K to 12 Curriculum using the Most
Essential Learning Competencies (MELC) while overcoming their personal, social,
and economic constraints in schooling.

This learning material hopes to engage the learners into guided and independent
learning activities at their own pace and time. Further, this also aims to help
learners acquire the needed 21st century skills especially the 5 Cs namely:
Communication, Collaboration, Creativity, Critical Thinking and Character while
taking into consideration their needs and circumstances.

In addition to the material in the main text, you will also see this box in the body of
the module:

Notes to the Teacher

This contains helpful tips or strategies
that will help you in guiding the learners.

As a facilitator you are expected to orient the learners on how to use this module.
You also need to keep track of the learners' progress while allowing them to
manage their own learning. Moreover, you are expected to encourage and assist the
learners as they do the tasks included in the module.
For the learner:

Welcome to TLE 8 CSS Module 18: Evaluate the Testing Process!

The hand is one of the most symbolized part of the human body. It is often used to
depict skill, action and purpose. Through our hands we may learn, create and
accomplish. Hence, the hand in this learning resource signifies that you as a
learner is capable and empowered to successfully achieve the relevant
competencies and skills at your own pace and time. Your academic success lies in
your own hands!

This module was designed to provide you with fun and meaningful opportunities
for guided and independent learning at your own pace and time. You will be
enabled to process the contents of the learning material while being an active
learner.

This module has the following parts and corresponding icons:

RECAP
Directions: Identify the following statements. Write your answer on the space
provided.
________________ 1. It measures the electric current in a circuit.
_________________ 2. It quantifies small amount of resistance in a electronic
components.
_________________ 3. It is electronic testing equipment or software used to create
digital electronics stimuli at the logical level.
_________________ 4. It is used to regulate the width, frequency, delay based on the
low and high voltage levels of the pulses, and with respect to an internal and
external triggering.
_________________ 5. It is basic equipment or instrument used to quantify the
difference of voltage or electrical potential between two points in electrical circuits.

LESSON
Testing methods may be determined by:

1. Passive testing- assesses the ability to obtain and store the energy
coming from the active electronic components. Passive electronic
components to be tested are the following:
• Capacitors- (originally known as a condenser) is a passive two-
terminal electrical component utilized to store energy
electrostatically in an electric field.

• Resistors- is a passive two-terminal electrical component that

employs electrical resistance as a circuit element. Electrical
resistance is a gauge of its opposition to the movement of
 electric current. It regulates the flow of current and voltage
levels within the field.

• Transformer- is an electrical device that transmits electrical

energy between two or more circuits through the process of
electromagnetic induction. Electromagnetic induction is a
creation of an electromotive force across an electrical conductor
in a modifying magnetic field.

• Inductor- is a passive electrical component comprising of a coil

of wire which is intended to hold the advantage of the
connection between magnetism and electricity as a result of an
electric current going across the coil.

• Diode- is a two-terminal electronic component that only

performs current in a single direction within a specific voltage
point.
2. Dynamic testing- is mechanical testing that involves static, dynamic,
and fatigue testing in tensile, compression, shear test modes. It
utilized equipment to verify the new designs, improve manufacturing
processes, and prove the quality of end products. It is important to
validate the quality of the product to ensure its mechanical endurance
and integrity.

3. In-circuit testing- focus on testing the efficiency of the printed circuit

board by measuring each component that is in place and of the
correct value. It can be calculated in terms of simple measurements
or resistance, capacitance, and inductance between two points on the
circuit board. The most faults on board that usually arise in the
manufacturing process are short circuits, open circuits, or wrong
components. In-circuit test equipment consists of several elements:
a. In-circuit tester- contains a matrix of drivers and sensors that
are utilized to set up and conduct the measurements.
 b. Fixture- created exclusively for a particular board, and serves
as a crossing point between the board and the in-circuit tester.
It holds the links for the driver sensor points and tracks them
directly to the significant points on the board using a "bed of
nails".

c. Software- gives instructions to the test system on what

assessments to make, between what points and aspects of the
pass/fail criteria.

Writing Technical Report

The main task of a technical report is to give information on the
condition of the electronic components of the device. It is intended for long-
term archival of results and description and monitoring of the condition of
the devices.
The report answers the following important questions:
a. What is the report about? What are you trying to say?
b. Who are you writing for?
c. How long can the report be?
It can help you to easily:
1. Identify electronic components
2. Comprehend the faults or conflicting electronic components
inside the device.
3. Help the technician evaluate the problems of the electronic
components.
