The total time on test (TTT) concept has proved to be a very useful tool in many reliability applications. In this paper we illustrate the usefulness of the TTT‐transform, a certain functional of the survival function, and an empirical counterpart called the TTT‐plot when analysing some different burn‐in models for both repairable and non‐repairable units.
