Practice:
Perform all thermal environmental tests on electronic spaceflight hardware in a flight-like thermal vacuum environment (i.e., do not substitute an atmospheric pressure thermal test for the thermal/ vacuum test). Moreover, if a compromise is thought to be necessary for nontechnical reasons, then an analysis is required to quantify the reduction in test demonstrated reliability.
