Unit Level Testing

1.	Verify the accuracy of the heart rate monitor by comparing it too proven heart rate monitors (http://www.proten.com)	$50.00 to $350.00
2.	Verify the ability to register small wrist motions by comparing it to a similar device that does the same. (http://www.metamotion.com)	$5000.00

Note: It is estimated that between 3-5 computers would be needed to test the code that handles these functions, as well as to aid in the testing of each units accuracy and dependability.

$3000 - $5000 estimated

Integration/System Level Testing

1.	Verify that the heart rate monitor component and wrist motion component work as intended given different input.	See computer costs
2.	Verify that the watch functions work when integrated with the sleep detection components.	See computer costs

Operational Level Testing

1.	Test the durability of the WSD.	Outsource to Consumer Reports
2.	Verify the functionality of the WSD by laboratory testing real people.	*

Preliminary estimates suggest that the equipment, technicians, and test-subject payments required to execute such a study would cost approximately $10,000.

Time
An interview with an industry professional working in this field indicates that companies generally base these estimates on prior project history, project cycle time, and company policy. In his line of work, projects are on 3 year cycles. With one year for determining the projects requirements, and how they will be met. One year to develop the product, and the last year for testing. The Small Business Innovations Research program works very similar to this, so using a 3 year project cycle with one year devoted to testing would seem reasonable.
