Testing Transorbs:
Basically these are low current zener diodes.
If the part is good then it will read a normal diode drop voltage in the forward bias direction and should show normal zener diode knee curve in its reverse bias direction. This value can range from a few volts to several hundred volts with the steady state current usually only a few milliamps. Note that these parts can be high voltage devices. You will need the data sheet to verify steady state operation.
Running them in the steady state operation mode for any length of time isn't recommended typically.
Say you are protecting a 12 volt car electronics device... the transorb would probably be rated at 15 volts threshold or a little more so that testing it for actual performance would require removing it from circuit.
Transorbs can absorb a very high current spike only for a few microseconds such as a static discharge.

Working of transorb?
Transorb acts as Zener diode.It clamps the high power to certain amount of power which is usrd for the circuit
What is a transorb?
A Transient Voltage Suppressor (Transorb) is a zener diode that is engineered for high power current switching. They function in a similar fashion to FETs but are capable of higher current and voltages than FETs. Some are "bidirectional" consisting of two zeners and allow current flow in two directions unlike a FET or Diode which allow current in one primary direction.

What is a validity of a test test?
Validity of a test refers to the ability of test to test what it is supposed to test

What is the validity of a test?
The validity of a test refers to the extent to which it measures what it intends to measure. It assesses if a test is actually capturing the construct or concept it is designed to measure. Validity is essential to ensure that test scores are meaningful and can be generalized to the intended population.
