field trials
Real-world product testing
Field trials are tests conducted in real-world conditions rather than laboratories or controlled settings.
Agricultural researchers run field trials on new crop varieties; pharmaceutical companies conduct field trials of drugs on actual patients.
The term also refers to competitions testing hunting dogs' ability to locate and retrieve game in natural terrain: Her pointer won the regional field trials.
