  2. Sanity check - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sanity_check

    A sanity check or sanity test is a basic test to quickly evaluate whether a claim or the result of a calculation can possibly be true. It is a simple check to see if the produced material is rational (that the material's creator was thinking rationally, applying sanity ).

  3. Linear alkylbenzene - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_alkylbenzene

    Linear alkylbenzenes (sometimes also known as LABs) are a family of organic compounds with the formula C 6 H 5 C n H 2n+1. Typically, n lies between 10 and 16, although generally supplied as a tighter cut, such as C 12-C 15, C 12-C 13 and C 10-C 13, for detergent use. [1] The C n H 2n+1 chain is unbranched.

    Smoke testing is also done by testers before accepting a build for further testing. Microsoft claims that after code reviews, "smoke testing is the most cost-effective method for identifying and fixing defects in software". [10] One can perform smoke tests either manually or using an automated tool. In the case of automated tools, the process ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Test_method

    A test method is a method for a test in science or engineering, such as a physical test, chemical test, or statistical test. It is a definitive procedure that produces a test result. [ 1 ] In order to ensure accurate and relevant test results, a test method should be "explicit, unambiguous, and experimentally feasible.", [ 2 ] as well as ...

    Therefore, this type is mainly found in such applications as toxicology laboratories, where the ability to safely use hazardous chemistry is important. [5] Additionally, there is the risk that contaminated air would flow into the laboratory if the exhaust system for a Type B1 or B2 cabinet were to fail.

  9. Laboratory safety - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laboratory_safety

    Many laboratories contain significant risks, and the prevention of laboratory accidents requires great care and constant vigilance. [1] [2] Examples of risk factors include high voltages, high and low pressures and temperatures, corrosive and toxic chemicals and chemical vapours, radiation, fire, explosions, and biohazards including infective organisms and their toxins.
