I have a formal technical document and need to state a operation prerequisite indicating that Equipment A has passed the test. Shall I say:

Equipment A has passed the test.
Equipment A passes the test.
Equipment A test passed.

I feel so unsure. Please suggest a good one if none of the above sounds ok.

Thank u so much.

In technical documents and newspaper headlines, structure words (like prepositions, articles,etc) are usually omitted and only content words are used. So you might say:

Equipment A passed test.

Equipment A tested OK.
