A system for rapid testing of devices includes a test performance
component capable of testing an intermittently operated device, an
interface component capable of providing a release interval value and a
measurement interval value, and a test control component capable of
receiving the release interval value and the measurement interval value
from the interface component and of providing the release interval value
and the test interval value to the test performance component, and the
test performance component being capable of initiating interaction
between the intermittently operated device and the test performance
component, of performing a plurality of tests, each test from the
plurality of tests occurring over one test interval value, and of
terminating the plurality of tests after a predetermined condition is
satisfied.
