The ever increasing complexity of Earth observation spacecraft requires new verification methods and powerful test support equipments. An overall approach is presented for the spacecraft from electrical assembly and tests up to validation of flight operational procedures, together with guidelines for optimized design of the required check out and verification ground equipments. These test methods and verification steps were implemented on SPOT and ERS 1 programs.
