'''PCB prototyping''' is done after the schematic has been worked out and before PCB fabrication. It is useful for testing and evaluating the design and layout and is quick and economical for producing one-offs.<ref>''[https://web.archive.org/web/20130218225030/http://frank.harvard.edu/aoe/ The Art of Electronics]'' by Paul Horowitz and Winfield Hill, {{ISBN |0-521-37095-7}}, pages 827-830]</ref> There are a number of methods to choose from:
* [[Solderless breadboard]] aka plugboard
* [[Wirewrap prototyping|Wirewrap]]
* [[Matrix board prototyping|Matrix board]] or perfboard
