FIELD NOTES
Get better at hardware test.
Guides, tutorials, and best practices to help you build better hardware tests.
- Scaling & Monitoring
Sensor Calibration at Scale
Learn how to automate sensor calibration workflows, track calibration certificates, and manage multi-point calibration data with TofuPilot.
- Test Station Setup
Deploy Test Scripts to Stations with Git
Push to a branch and every linked station runs the new test procedure, with immutable artifacts and instant rollback. Plus the manual path if you need it.
- Concepts & Methodology
What Is Adaptive Testing for Manufacturing
Adaptive testing uses real-time data to adjust test sequences, skip redundant checks, and reduce cycle time. Learn how it works and where it applies.
- Test Types & Methods
Design an End-of-Line Operator Screen
An EOL operator screen must be fast, clear, and error-proof. Learn how to design the interface for end-of-line test stations.
- Test Types & Methods
HIL Testing for Embedded Systems
Set up hardware-in-the-loop testing for embedded systems using Python, GPIO control, and TofuPilot logging for automated regression analysis.
- Scaling & Monitoring
Collaborative Test Data Analysis
Learn how to share hardware test data across teams using TofuPilot's centralized platform for collaborative debugging and quality analysis.
- Compliance & Traceability
Build a Device History Record
Learn how to compile FDA-compliant Device History Records using TofuPilot's per-unit test data, traceability, and structured measurement storage.
- Test Types & Methods
Log HIL Results for Regression Analysis
Structure HIL test results with firmware versions and environmental data for regression tracking in TofuPilot.
- Scaling & Monitoring
Offline Test Data Sync
Learn how to collect hardware test data in offline or air-gapped environments and sync it to TofuPilot when connectivity is restored.
- Test Types & Methods
Burn-In Testing for Electronics
Learn how to set up burn-in tests for electronic assemblies, log results to TofuPilot, and use burn-in data to catch infant mortality defects.
- Test Types & Methods
What Is Hardware Reliability Testing
Hardware reliability testing predicts product lifespan under stress. Learn what it covers, common methods, and how to track results with TofuPilot.
- Scaling & Monitoring
Manage Subcontractor Test Quality
Give subcontractors your test procedures, collect their results in your TofuPilot workspace, and maintain full visibility over outsourced production quality.
