Am I the only one who won't skip the hydro test after what I saw at the shop in Gary?

Watched a guy rush a 150 psi hydro on a small vessel at a shop in Gary, Indiana, and the gasket let go at about 90 and soaked the whole bay. Now I won't sign off on one without a slow ramp and a dry run first (yeah, it adds an hour, but I've seen what the fast way costs). How do you all handle the ramp on smaller vessels without it turning into an all-day thing?
