What is GLADoS testing for?

[maarteniepeels]

Of what use are these tests anyway? What does she learn from them?

[Gemarakup]

Aperture Science is testing their products. GLaDOS just does it for fun ever since she was activated.

But of what use would a portal gun be in real life?

[Gemarakup]

What do you think? I would use it to get to places faster.

[Roy Mustang]

You can get to the Moon with low price :).

Nope, you need astronaut suits and the air sucks everything in.

[Gemarakup]

And your life.

[Gemarakup]

And other peoples lives and stuff sucked through the portal. Not very clever thing to do.

Infinite kinetic energy. Stick a portal on the ceiling and floor, a turbine in the middle and let the water flow.

That's a good idea.

All you would have to do is have an airtight chamber.

One portal on the moon, walk into the chamber, close airtight door, portal on the wall.

She testing people to look for the perfect spouse

i think she is testing cus in the futer they want to sell portal gusn to the public

The main reason why GLaDOS is obsessed with testing is they built a Need to test into the Disk Operatating System. She can't help but test... It's a need. That and the device (portal gun) was never proven safe, only the portals were.

I assume that she's testing human psychology, and each mechanic as it gets added (like turrets and weighted cubes).

[Gamer DudeZX]

she is testing for how a human mind solves problems in an attemp to copy it and so she does in Portal 2 where robots are to do harder tasks and the people are kept in pickle jars wired to Glados. It is all to weird for you to handle but is Area 51 stuff. Half Life 2 is the parallel sequal.
