strength test
Measuring physical capability
A strength test measures how much force, load, or stress something can withstand before failing or deforming.
Materials undergo strength tests to determine structural integrity: The concrete failed the strength test.
For people, strength tests assess physical capacity—grip strength, lifting ability, or muscle endurance: The physical therapist administered a strength test before clearing him for activity.
