Abstract :
Test-related decisions have important consequences for product cost, quality, reliability, and information gathering. Yet, the persons making those decisions are - like all of us - imperfect. This article suggests ways to improve our understanding of our own decision making with an eye toward making the best choices possible in the area of electronic test.
