 ==== 1.7 Tests ====
-The main objective of testing the prototype is to verify that the Maris Habitats concept functions as intended under controlled conditions. Since the prototype is a simplified validation model, the testing phase focuses on three main aspects: the basic operation of the sensor system, the structural stability of the habitat module, and the protection of the electronic components. The final product is intended for long-term marine deployment, whereas the prototype is primarily used to validate the measurement and data-logging concept in a controlled environment. For this reason, the prototype tests will focus on temperature, pressure, and Total Dissolved Solids (TDS) measurements, while more advanced parameters such as pH and conductivity are reserved for the final product.
-A structural test will be carried out using SOLIDWORKS simulation tools. This test will be used to analyze how the habitat structure responds to applied forces and to evaluate whether the design can withstand expected mechanical loads. The simulation will help identify possible weak points in the structure and support further design improvements before physical production or deployment.

-A prototype test will be performed in air to verify the basic functionality of the electronic system. This test will confirm whether the sensors, microcontroller, power supply, and data storage system operate correctly before any water-related testing is considered. The purpose of this stage is to reduce technical risk by ensuring that the system can collect and store sensor data under safe and controlled conditions.
