Generaly speaking, a drug test is a process using some kind of biological matter taken from an individual to determine previous drug use. It's a matter of much controversy, and of course many have argued that it is an invasion of privacy, and the accuracy and effectiveness of some tests are also in question.
Drug tests can be divided into two general groups. The first group is the kind most people are familiar with. This type of testing involves the donor giving a sample of some bodily fluid or hair to an employer, doctor, law enforcement official, or a medical testing center. This is normally a sample of urine, blood, hair, or saliva/oral fluid. After collection from the donor, the sample is sealed with a tamper-evident seal and sent to a laboratory for analysis. The primary advantages of this type of test are accuracy, legal defensibility, and the ability to customize tests for a particular demographic group. The disadvantages are typically costs associated with the need for collection sites (urine, blood), and the delay in receiving results (up to 4 days.)
The second type of drug test is an on-site (workplace, school, washroom, or at-home) drug test that does not require a laboratory. These types of tests provide the advantages of lower cost and availability of results within minutes. Furthermore, if on-site tests, such as oral fluid-based or saliva tests are used, the problem of "beating the tests" (otherwise known as sample adulteration or substitution) can be virtually eliminated. On-site tests provide qualitative results, and when supplemented with laboratory-based confirmation tests, can be defended in a court of law.
