An integrated collection and testing device designed to collect oral fluid and immediately begin a testing process, such as for drugs of abuse. The test strips are held within a housing that also doubles as a handle. A collection swab at one end of the handle is made of absorbent material that has the ability to saturate itself when placed in the mouth. A special strip of absorbent material connects the collection swab to the test strips and assists the flow of the oral fluid to the test strips. After collection of the oral fluid, a security cap is placed over the collection swab and locked in place. At the same time, a small amount of oral fluid is collected in a confirmation reservoir that is within the security cap.
