Todd,
IPC-TM-650 Test Methods Manual has listed 3 methods for gold porosity
test: (1) Test method 2.3.24 Porosity of Gold Plating (chemical method).
This method provides procedures to determine the porosity of gold plating
both copper and nickel surface by chemical means. (2) Test method
2.3.24.1 Porosity Testing of Gold Electrodeposited on a Nickel Plated
Copper Substrate Electrgraphic Method. This method provides a procedure
for testing the porosity of gold electroplated from an alkaline (cyanide),
acid, or neutral gold plating solution on a nickel substrate in contact
with gold deposit. (3) Test method 2.3.24.2 Porosity of Metallic
Coatings on Copper-Base Alloys, and Nickel (Nitric acid vaper test).
These tests should give you a pretty good idea of what gold porosity test
is and what material/lab hardware you will need to perform the test and
more. Good luck
