Hello plu,

It would perhaps be wiser to look at this from the marketing competitive angle.

Certain markets, applications and customers are used to high standard products (valves), and you will find that your competitors will have products that cover theese requirements with tests of different types.

To be competitive in this market, you will at least have to have all of the same tests, and be cheaper and at least as good as competitors.

Even to penetrate the top quality market you will perhaps have to prove your quality with tests that are not actually required from every customer.

Conclusion: ask your marketing or strategy department on what market and what competitors they want to compete against. Then check from competitors description and possible customers what is required.
