1. A testing system for preparing electronic racks comprising servers for a deployment and a fluid recirculation system to cool the servers, the testing system comprising:
a testing unit configured to:
apply fluids to an electronic rack of the electronic racks, and
fluidly prepare the electronic rack for coolant when deployed to the deployment; and
a testing server comprising a processor and memory, the processor, when executing a set of computing instructions, is configured to:
perform, with the testing unit, a coolant circulation testing on the fluid recirculation system and collect operation data during the coolant circulation testing;
perform, with the testing unit, a workload testing on the electronic rack and collect operation data during the workload testing;
perform, with the testing unit, a thermal cycle testing on the electronic rack and collect operation data during the thermal cycle testing;
perform, with the testing unit, a pressure testing on the fluid recirculation system and collect operation data during the pressure testing;
determine whether the operation data corresponding to the coolant circulation testing, the workload testing, the thermal cycle testing, and the pressure testing meet testing expectations; and
prepare, with the testing unit, the electronic rack for the deployment in response to determining that the operation data corresponding to the coolant circulation testing, the workload testing, the thermal cycle testing, and the pressure testing meet the testing expectations.
