A method for testing a phase transformation point of aluminium alloy, comprising cutting an aluminium alloy material to obtain at least three samples to be tested; performing heat treatment on a first sample to be tested to obtain a first resistivity-temperature curve; respectively performing quenching treatment and annealing treatment on a second sample to be tested and a third sample to be tested to obtain the second sample to be tested at a quenched state and the third sample to be tested at a fully annealed state, and respectively heating the second sample to be tested at a quenched state and the third sample to be tested at a fully annealed state to obtain a second resistivity-temperature curve and a third resistivity-temperature curve; obtaining a relative resistivity-temperature curve; and determining a phase transformation starting temperature and a phase transformation termination temperature of the sample to be tested according to the relative resistivity-temperature curve. By means of this method, a phase transformation behavior and a phase transformation temperature under a non-linear cooling condition can be tested. The range of a cooling rate which can be tested in the method is wide, and a phase transformation behavior of a small volume fraction and precipitated phase information about a small size can be captured.
