Abstract: To improve the cost-effectiveness for spacecraft structure test verification has become an important issue under the text of intense market competition with cost, period and labor problems. Fully understanding the objective and the contents of the test is the basis to improve its cost-effectiveness. The test serves an effective means in the quality management of the design and the product development cycle. In view of this understanding, engineers should focus on improving the design quality, trading-off process control cost and the acceptance test cost, understanding the failure mode and the related test activity, as well as synchronizing the planning design and the verification based on a systems engineering view.
