This paper presents an overview of reliability testing, reliability estimation, and prediction models. It also presents approaches for the design of test plans which result in providing failure data and/or degradation data in a limited test duration. Equivalence of different test plans which result in similar reliability estimates is also discussed. Use of degradation data for reliability estimates and maintenance decisions are presented.
