Accelerated life tests (ALTs) have become an indispensable tool for reliability engineers to quantify a product's reliability, and for product managers to make product release decisions. However, there are many common misuses of ALTs and misinterpretations of their results. This book provides a framework for the proper design and analysis of ALTs. It compares ALTs with other industrial testing experiments, and provides guidance on their appropriate application. It features lots of examples using real data from industrial experiments, and provides statistical software for their implementation. It can be used as a textbook for students of reliability, or as a reference for practitioners
