    The purpose is to establish if the item is safe rather than filling in a box on a test sheet. 


    That's my point I can't assure that an item is safe if I can't complete a full test run for the item class hence it must be recorded as a faulty item and marked as failed 






    So are you are quite prepared to fail brand new equipment straight out of the box from the manufacturer?
