In an embodiment, a method for testing a millimeter-wave radar module includes: providing power to the millimeter-wave radar module; performing a plurality of tests indicative of a performance level of the millimeter-wave radar module; comparing respective results from the plurality of tests with corresponding test limits; and generating a flag when a result from a test of the plurality of test is outside the corresponding test limits, where performing the plurality of tests includes: transmitting a signal with a transmitting antenna coupled to a millimeter-wave radar sensor, modulating the transmitted signal with a test signal, and capturing first data from a first receiving antenna using an analog-to-digital converter of the millimeter-wave radar sensor, where generating the flag includes generating the flag based on the captured first data.
