Engineering testing and certification is expecially important because you want to promote the quality standards set by a particular company. In the case of civil engineering, building safety measures ensure that the building does not collapse on its foundations and the stability of the large structure is maintained. In electrical engineering, you want to ensure that the circuit is tuned to perfection specially in computers and no 'short circuits' occur.

Engineering testing and certification are often specified in a contract to ensure that material supplied in fact meets the required standards. The process can involve anything from metal alloy plates to sea trials of an oceangoing cargo ship.

So that manufacturers can find out what's wrong, if anything, with their products instead of having them fail while the customer is using them.
