A method for testing the tightness of a test volume (6) constituted by the inside of a container or a closed space between a hollow test object (3) and a cover, a fixture (1, 2) or the like, which temporarily encloses the test object during the testing operation. First, a gas pressure is applied to the test volume (6) by transferring a predetermined (21) gas quantity for the detection of a possible large leakage and, thereafter, a differential pressure measurement (11) relative to a reference volume (7) is effected for the detection of a possible minor leakage. |
