Which is why many of these Type Tests should be automated - human testers miss too much stuff during a long-term test. And choose to not live at work for the 15 day tests required for some of the over-loads that must be done on employer's stuff.

One-half hour to set up, seven hours to test, and one-half hour to record results and take down. Eight-hour day. Works for most equipment. For small equipment, it is a long test. For large equipment (intended for long-term operation), it may be too short. And, the equipment should not be unattended during the test as unanticipated failures can occur.
