Usage Note
Collaudo denotes the formal testing or commissioning of a product, structure, or vehicle to verify it meets specifications — closer to 'acceptance test' or 'certification trial' than routine testing. The related verb is collaudare. In aviation and engineering it specifically refers to a test flight or structural inspection sign-off.
Examples
"Il collaudo del nuovo aereo è andato bene."

The new aircraft's test went well.
