Abstract
This paper describes in detail the innovative methodologies developed for verification of the most critical performances of the Secondary and Tertiary Mirror Cells (M2 and M3) and the Fifth Mirror Cell (M5) of the European Extremely Large Telescope (ELT). Particularly, the SFE verification for the M2M3 Cells, and the tip-tilt capability verification for the M5 Cell are addressed. It also presents the obtained test results with the corresponding discussion.
