A bend test device and bend test method enable a mandrel bend test to be automatically performed. The bend test device includes a controlled motor, a drive shaft coupled to the motor, a nose piece coupled to the drive shaft, and a nose clamp for securing a device under test (DUT) to the nose piece. A control system connected to the bend test device uses a programmed control algorithm to control the bend test device. The motor is connected to the drive shaft and rotates the drive shaft in response to control signaling provided by the control system. The rotating drive shaft in turn rotates the nose piece. Rotation of the nose piece bends the mounted DUT. The motor rotates the drive shaft as defined by the software parameters and the DUT is bent back and forth across a defined radius edge.
