- For the process by which a spacecraft was tested, see test flight.
A flight test was an examination designed to assess the capabilities of spacecraft pilot.
In 2370, Ensign Sito Jaxa revealed to Captain Jean-Luc Picard that in the wake of her misconduct while a member of Starfleet Academy's Nova Squadron, she had to take her flight test with the instructor because no one else would be her partner. (TNG: "Lower Decks")
The test presumably took place at the Academy Flight Range.
