FreeSewing patterns are _made-to-measure_, which means that we don't need to
grade our pattern to provide a range of sizes. We should sample our pattern
for different measurements and options to see how well it adapts.

## Testing measurements
Testing a measurement will vary that measurement 10% up or down while leaving

testing models will draft our pattern for different sets of measurements, which
we refer to as _models_.
On the surface, the result below is the same as our measurement test. But that
is because our bib only uses one measurement. So testing that one measurement
ends up being the same as testing a complete set of measurements.
But most patterns use multiple measurements, and you'll find this test gives
you insight into how your pattern will adapt to differently sized bodies.

## The antperson test
A special case of model testing is the so-called _antperson test_. It drafts
your pattern with a set of _typical_ measurements , and then drafts it again
our pattern with a set of _typical_ measurements , and then drafts it again
with measurements that are 1/10th of those _typical_ measurements.
It is named after [the cartoon
character](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ant-Man_\(film\)) who can shrink, yet
somehow his suit still fits.
The purpose of the antperson test is to bring out areas in your pattern where
you made assumptions that will not properly scale. Many drafting books will
tell you to _add 3 cm there_ or _measure 2 inch to the right_. Those
instructions don't scale, and you should avoid them.

The best patterns will pass the antperson test with 2 patterns exactly the
same, where one will simply be 1/10th the scale of the other.
