UT is not perfect…
but it found 75% of the known discontinuities.
UT is not perfect…
but false positives tend to be self correcting.
UT is not perfect…
but when discontinuities are found, their location is
generally accurately predicted.
UT is not perfect…
but UT is only part of a quality management
