FLOW TEST METHOD, FLOW TEST SYSTEM, AND FLOW TEST PROGRAM

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To efficiently and securely verify the soundness of a flow passage. SOLUTION: This flow test method comprises a step for flowing down, from the upstream side 35 of the flow passage, a tested body 10 having a data carrier 20 in which system information indicating the attribute of a flow passage downstream side end 40 and arrangement information set under prescribed rules for each tested body 10 in the order of flow down in the system information are stored, a step for acquiring storage information on the data carrier 20 by performing, at the downstream end 40 of the flow passage, a readout treatment by a reader/writer 150 for the data carrier 20 installed in the tested body 10, and a step for determining the soundness of the system by detecting as to whether the arrangement information on a tested body group which must flow in the same system is different from the prescribed rules or not based on the storage information acquired from the data carrier 20 of each tested body 10.
