Qualmark's Ask the Experts
In Qualmark's 20 year history of leading the HALT (Highly Accelerated Life Test) and HASS (Highly Accelerated Stress Screen) industry, we are frequently asked these 3 questions:

  • Why test beyond spec?
  • If it fails beyond spec, why should I care?
  • Can HALT find software defects as well as hardware defects?


If you've found yourself wondering the same thing or tried to answer these questions for colleagues, you should listen in as Kirk Gray, a 32-year industry veteran and an early adopter of HALT and HASS, explains why stressing beyond specs is meaningful, the reliability relevancy of failures found outside of specs, and why HALT can find software defects that might otherwise go undiscovered until they become warranty issues.
