The webinar addresses the technical rational for preparing and implementing optimized test flows for EEE Components, procured off the shelf as Space, Military, Commercial Quality Level for LEO applications. The presented test flows are non-traditional vs. the official NASA/ESA Space Specs dedicated to all the above-mentioned quality levels. The test flows and their implementation are under full responsibility of the user.

The policy of the selection and approval of the to be flown components is based on first-priority given to COTS.

Case by case, as per a specific component type and/or related supporting database, engineering judgement may take precedence over the general mentioned policy and or the related test flow. Two generations of test flows will be presented:

• 1st Generation a test flow with two and a half decades of successful space heritage.
• 2nd Generation a proposed test flow optimized as per lessons learnt from use of COTS in space, as technically (not politically biased) understood by the author.
