The invention relates to a method for the measurement of the fracture toughness of a coating or surface, in which method a hard stylus is drawn with an increasing normal force along the surface of an object so that the surface undergoes damage by fracture. Using an optical, acoustical or other technical method, the location of the first cracks on or near the scratch groove is measured, the frictional forces at the crack positions are measured, and, using these data, the fracture toughness of the coating or surface is calculated via a fracture mechanical analysis. The scratching of the surface using a hard stylus with a force increasing in a controlled manner can be implemented via a so-called scratch test known in prior art, by providing it with acoustic emission or equivalent detector measuring the location of appearance of the first crack, provided that it includes a force detector for continuous measurement of frictional force.
