Custom Test Engineering for Product Validation and Manufacturing

Averna is a global leader in test engineering and quality automation. Our core mission is to deliver fully customized, optimized solutions that support both product manufacturing and quality control.

As products become more complex, validating functionality and maintaining consistent quality in production becomes more difficult. Manual methods, limited test coverage, and disconnected data can all affect confidence in the final product.

Averna Supports the Full Test Lifecycle

From design to support we deliver through the entire product lifecycle. 

  1. Consulting

    We support early test strategy definition through Design for Testability (DFT) and Design for Manufacturing (DFM). This can include engineering prototyping and feasibility studies before validation or production test begins.

  2. New Product Introduction (NPI), Design & Validation (DVT/EVT)

    During product development, we build test solutions that support DVT activities and validate functional behavior before production launch.

  3. PVT & Production Test

    For manufacturing environments, Averna develops scalable test systems built for repeatability and traceability in production. 

  4. Repair

    Because tested units remain traceable by serial number, Averna can validate returned products against their original test records to confirm reported defects. 

Test Engineering Expertise

Test engineering is at the core of Averna’s test and measurement solutions. Our expertise spans multiple methodologies used to validate product performance and support efficient production across manufacturing industries.

Functional Testing & FCT

Verification of product functionality through automated test sequences, controlled stimuli, and application-specific limits. Used to confirm expected input/output functionality, interface integrity, and response under defined operating conditions.

System-Level Testing

Evaluation of the complete product or integrated subsystem in a configuration representative of real use. Includes interaction between electronics, software, communications, power domains, sensors, and control logic.

End-of-Line Testing

Final production-stage verification performed before shipment. Designed to confirm unit-level conformity while meeting cycle time, repeatability, traceability, and manufacturing integration requirements.

Environmental Testing

Assessment of product behavior under controlled thermal, mechanical, or climatic stress. Used to characterize operating stability, identify susceptibility to environmental exposure, and verify performance across expected use and/or extreme conditions.

HALT / HASS Testing

Accelerated test methods used to expose design weaknesses or latent defects through elevated stress profiles. HALT is typically applied during development to determine operating and destructive limits, while HASS is used in production as a controlled screening method.

Validation Testing

Structured testing performed to confirm that the product meets defined requirements, expected operating conditions, and program acceptance criteria. Based on documented procedures, measurable outputs, and requirement-driven test coverage.

Our Test System Capabilities

Since 1999, Averna has been committed to providing you with the best partnership possible, thanks to our advanced technical skills and varied expertise.

Performance Measurement and Hardware Integration

Our teams integrate the right hardware and control layers required to build efficient, repeatable test platforms, from benchtop stations to full production cells. Instrumentation selection is always based on our clients requirements and priorities.

Custom Test Software and Sequencing

We develop robust test software and automated sequences that coordinate instruments, stimuli, measurements, operator workflows, and result logging. As an NI Diamond Partner, Averna brings deep expertise in LabVIEW, TestStand, and PXI-based architectures, while also developing flexible test applications in Python, C# and more when project requirements call for it.

Data Insight

Averna systems capture and structure large volumes of test data to improve traceability and support engineering analysis. With Proligent™ Cloud, one of our smart data management solutions, manufacturers can connect unit-level records, monitor test results over time, and investigate product history with greater speed and accuracy.

Global Deployment and Business Continuity Services

Our test engineering services do not stop after we deliver. We offer business continuity services right from the start to help prevent disruptions before they affect production. Averna supports international manufacturing programs with local resources across key regions. If a system is designed in Montreal and deployed in Mexico, Poland, or China, local teams can support installation, maintenance, and long-term continuity.
Case Study

Averna’s Custom Solution to Accelerate CGM R&D

cover3d-css-catheter-inspection-en

To support the development of a next‑generation Continuous Glucose Monitoring (CGM) device, Averna delivered an automated In Vitro Test System (IVTS) designed to replace time‑consuming manual testing during R&D. The objective was to generate reliable verification data while meeting strict medical accuracy and grant‑driven deadlines.

The test architecture is built on NI’s CompactDAQ for data acquisition, with LabVIEW‑based software to control test sequences and measurement logic. Averna Launch serves as the unified test executive, offering a medically validated framework and a simple interface that allows R&D teams to rapidly adapt test parameters as development evolves.

Key test metrics:

  • –5 hours per unit: test time reduced from 8 hours to ~3 hours
  • 8‑week timeline: full IVTS design, build and deployment
  • Months of R&D acceleration: manual testing bottleneck eliminated

“Working with Averna has sped up R&D testing by months, if not years. Development of our product remains on track due to the simplicity and accuracy of our IVTS.”
