What are some tests used to ensure the safety of toys?
These include an “impact test” to make sure no small parts fall off when a toy gets knocked around; a “tumble test” for wheeled vehicles, during which testers push them down a short flight of stairs; and a “tension test” to make sure stuffed animals or beanbag toys don't come apart at the seams.
