DOE Used as a Design and as a Test Tool

Design of Experiments (DOE) is normally associated with the design environment but it is also an extremely powerful tool that can be used in the test environment. The testing of hardware, software and firmware can be difficult, at best, to accomplish. When the DOE methodology is used, the task is made simpler and it saves money in terms of time and resources. This presentation will discuss which method should be used, and why, for both the design environment and the test environment.
