Test report forgery is the fabrication of an analytical report, or the alteration, misattribution or reuse of a genuine one. It is the reason a document cannot by itself establish anything about a material: a document is an assertion, and assertions can be manufactured as easily as the things they describe.[1]
Four distinct practices are usually grouped under the term. A wholly fabricated report describes work never done. An altered report changes figures on a genuine document. A misattributed report is a genuine report on other material presented as covering this one. A reused report is a genuine report on an old lot presented as current.[2]
