At the July 1998 SPIE Conference, we reported about design and development as well as about fabrication, optical testing and integration of the grazing incidence ABRIXAS mirrors. In this paper we will describe the environmental and x-ray optical testing of the seven flight mirror modules and we will report about their achieved performance.
