What is a valid and reliable test?

The largest concern with respect to pre-employment physical testing is whether the tests being used are valid and reliable. If tests are not valid and reliable, not only may human rights issues arise, but the tests may not help your organization meet the goals of determining job capabilities and reducing future injuries and injury costs.
A test is valid if and only if the test accurately measures and represents the variable of interest. For example, if shoulder strength is the variable of interest, the test should accurately measure and represent shoulder strength.
A test is reliable if it is reproducible. That is, if the test produces the same outcome over repeated trials.
