Abstract

One example is test system for testing the propulsion system(s) of vehicles. The test system includes a retention fixture, a linking device, a test logic, a measurement device and a result logic. The retention fixture is for rigidly mounting first and second vehicles to the retention fixture. The linking device links propulsion systems of the first and second vehicles so that the propulsion systems operate a different rates. The test logic subjects the second vehicle's propulsion system to a propulsion test. The measurement device measures at least one parameter associated with the propulsion system of the first vehicle while the first vehicle is subjected to the propulsion test. The result logic determines if the first vehicle under test passed the propulsion test based, in part, on the at least one parameter and generates an indication if the first vehicle passed or failed the propulsion test.
