A test tool assembly (10) for use in testing a tubular component such as a pipe section (16) is mounted on the exterior surface (18) of the pipe section (16). The assembly (10) comprises a force-generating arrangement (20) for generating and applying an axial load to the pipe section (16). One end of the force- generating arrangement (20) is secured to an outer surface (18) of the pipe section (16) by a split sleeve clamp (22) mounted on an external gripping member (24). The other end of the arrangement (20) features sockets (26) which engage nuts (28) provided on studs (30) which extend into bolt holes (32) in the pipe section (16). The force-generating arrangement (20) further comprises an array of hydraulic actuators (34) mounted around the pipe section (16) between the split sleeve clamp (22) and the sockets (26). The tool assembly (10) will typically be used in combination with a pressure test tool (36).
