How do you evalute or test a bonded repair?

A & C and any other material specialists....how do you check the workmanship and bond of a bonded repair? With welds, you use various techniques from X-Ray, nuclear, dye penetrant...and the industry is pretty good these days in determining the 'fix'. Same for mechanical repairs, which tend to be over-engineered and can be inspected visually ( Brunel technique). How do you check repairs on these composites?
