Great topic, been there a few too many times. I agree with not re-performing every test and trusting your vendor testing. I would only add that IPC-TM-650 TEST METHODS MANUAL remains a good reference, and I continue to perform these test but as you mention, perform these in your production environment. Also I would add to pay close attention to board cleanliness between the paste/flux samples, when newer BTC type components are used. Cheers!
