is there a standard way to test battery

[gvsbdisco]

Hi Everyone
I have an unlocked AT&T 1020 that i use on the Rogers network in Canada. The battery on my phone seems wildly unpredictable. Some days it seems great other days it seems awful. Rebooting seems to help. As an example, today when i left to work battery was at 100%. I probably checked my email (3 accounts) 2 or 3 times, wrote a few texts and by 2pm or so the battery was at 68%. I really have no idea whether that is 'normal'. So my question is this:

- is there a standardized test that i can run to determine whether there is an issue with my battery or not?

Something long the lines of:

- configure phone in this manner (ie. turn off these features, set brightness to low etc etc)
- charge to 100%
- don't use phone
- check battery every x hrs

Can anybody point me in the right direction?

thanks
mike

Try using WPBench. Make sure your battery is fully charged, then test the battery with it. Post your results when the test finishes.
