This is especially challenging for large and complex airport and parcel systems consisting of individual carrier systems, automatic storage and retrieval systems, automated guided vehicles, robots, conveyors, control software and IT infrastructure.

Often, testing involves attempts to intentionally break the system to identify any problem areas, based on an analysis of technical risks.
