Importance of test beams in detector system qualification.

Abstract

ILC detectors are required to have unprecedented precision. Achieving this requires significant investment for test beam activities to complete the detector R&D needed, to test prototypes and (later) to qualify final detector system designs, including integrated system test. This document summarizes the discussion at this workshop on the test beam facilities and detector R&D programs to be performed there.
