See PCB test coverage in one clear view
How complete is your board test coverage, really? In many development and production environments, the answer is hidden across separate machine results, manual checks, and fragmented reports. The Test Coverage Report in PCB-Investigator brings those signals together and turns them into a fast, visual, and technically reliable overview.
For engineers, test specialists, and quality stakeholders, that means less guesswork and more traceability. Instead of reviewing isolated inspection outputs, you can evaluate the test status of the complete PCB in one place and understand where coverage is strong, where gaps remain, and where overlap occurs.
From machine results to actionable insight
The report uses machine analysis results to calculate test efficiency and production yield for the full board. It can include data from AOI, AXI, and DFT preparation, while also allowing machine-specific filters and process-specific selections.
This makes the report especially useful when different inspection technologies contribute to the final coverage picture. You can see which components or nets were tested, which ones were missed, and how much each machine influences the overall result. In other words: the report does not just display data, it helps interpret your test strategy.
The real value is not only in seeing coverage — it is in understanding where your process is still exposed.
Why this matters for production and quality
Once coverage gaps are visible, you can make better decisions about your inspection process, reduce untested risk, and improve the reliability of your product. That helps teams avoid unnecessary rework, remove blind spots early, and move toward serial production with more confidence.
- Full transparency: see tested and untested areas immediately
- Quality protection: reduce risk from missing coverage
- More efficiency: optimize test strategies based on data
- Faster ramp-up: identify weaknesses before they become costly
- Better alignment: give manufacturing, test, and management one shared view
The HTML export also makes it easy to share results and settings across teams, which improves communication and speeds up decisions. That is a practical advantage when test coverage needs to be discussed across departments or with external partners.
Conclusion
The Test Coverage Report in PCB-Investigator is a powerful way to make PCB test coverage transparent and actionable. If you want to improve inspection efficiency, reduce hidden risk, and build a more robust production process, this is a feature worth exploring.
